Auto merge of #26766 - jespino:add-more-filetypes, r=alexcrichton

I find that isn't supported on the current API and I think is necesary.

It is my first PR to rust (I'm not a rust expert and I'm not sure if this is the better way to propose this thinks), of course any suggestion of change will be welcome.

I'm almost sure that in windows aren't supported this filetypes, then, i put in the api of win::fs the functions with a fixed false in the response, I hope this is correct.
