[Bug] Custom magic files don't work.

What's the issue you encountered?

I created a custom text and binary mgc files but ImHex doesn't pick them up.

How can the issue be reproduced?

1. Create a simple magic file like this:

0     lelong  120897   Magic
!:mime  application/wt
!:ext   wt

2. Check that it works:

$ file -m wt --mime-type wtfile.wt
wtfile.wt: application/wt

3. Put this line into the pattern: #pragma MIME application/wt
4. Put the magic file to the application path Library/Application Support/imhex/magic.
5. Run ImHex and open the file.

Imhex doesn't automatically load the pattern.

ImHex Version

Additional context?

I also tried to compile the magic file with file -C, it didn't work too.

After I did this:

$ /Applications/imhex.app/Contents/MacOS/imhex --magic mime <FILE>

(returning the correct type), the pattern started to load automatically.
