filters: export mime type and filename in env
Export AERC_MIME_TYPE and AERC_FILENAME in the filters command environment. This allows dynamic coloring with tools that require a filename and/or a mime type to determine the syntax. Update docs and add example use in the default config file. Signed-off-by: Robin Jarry <robin@jarry.cc> Acked-by: Moritz Poldrack <moritz@poldrack.dev>
