/**
 * Simple RFC 6838 media type parser.
 * This module will parse a given media type into its component parts, like type, subtype, and suffix.
 * A formatter is also provided to put them back together and the two can be combined to normalize media types into a canonical form.
 * If you are looking to parse the string that represents a media type and its parameters in HTTP (for example, the Content-Type header), use the content-type module
