 4.2 rfc2231
 ===========
 
 RFC2231 defines a syntax for the ‘Content-Type’ and
 ‘Content-Disposition’ headers.  Its snappy name is “MIME Parameter Value
 and Encoded Word Extensions: Character Sets, Languages, and
 Continuations”.
 
    In short, these headers look something like this:
 
      Content-Type: application/x-stuff;
       title*0*=us-ascii'en'This%20is%20even%20more%20;
       title*1*=%2A%2A%2Afun%2A%2A%2A%20;
       title*2="isn't it!"
 
    They usually aren’t this bad, though.
 
    The following functions are defined by this library:
 
 ‘rfc2231-parse-string’
      Parse a ‘Content-Type’ header and return a list describing its
      elements.
 
           (rfc2231-parse-string
            "application/x-stuff;
            title*0*=us-ascii'en'This%20is%20even%20more%20;
            title*1*=%2A%2A%2Afun%2A%2A%2A%20;
            title*2=\"isn't it!\"")
           ⇒ ("application/x-stuff"
               (title . "This is even more ***fun*** isn't it!"))
 
 ‘rfc2231-get-value’
      Takes one of the lists on the format above and returns the value of
      the specified attribute.
 
 ‘rfc2231-encode-string’
      Encode a parameter in headers likes ‘Content-Type’ and
      ‘Content-Disposition’.
