accept header with */* does not match html templates

Attached is a rails app that demonstrates the bug:

It has a html controller with an index action and a post action.

The index action renders 2 forms that use :remote => true.

Both forms submit to the post action with the accept header containing /. However, only the form that includes :"data-type" => "html" succeeds.

Just start the app (rails 3.0.3) and go to localhost:3000 and then click on "Submit With Data Type" and "Submit Without Data Type" buttons to see the behavior described above.

Here is a patch that solves this issue.
I've tested it against Alex's app.

Hi Santiago, thank you for your quick reply. It's encouraging for a first contribution !

Here is the testcase:

Hey Mathieu,

Nice work on your first patch! The testcase looks good too.

One thing: could you merge the testcase and the fix into one commit and supply a new patch? :)

Sure, here it is !
