Revert "Added model mime type"

Stefan Brüns requested to merge bruns/kfilemetadata:revert_model_type_addition into master

This reverts commit 384f6d6a.

As discussed, the merge of the type addition was premature, as it has several open issues:

  1. For the intended use case of 3D models the name is to broad, and clashes with other "models", like e.g. behavioral models from Modelica.
  2. It is currently not clear what a good type name for the various 3D file formats is, as these can often contain other data not fitting "3D", e.g. GCode may be 2D only, Blender projects may be "video timelines", etc.

Additionally, the change of the "LastType" enum value is problematic from the ABI/API viewpoint.
