Added an option to compile a database file using mmmagic. This is extremely useful if the installed version of libmagic differs from the one used by mmmagic. The compiled magic files can be later used with the detect or detectFile methods.

Compiling is useful for extending libmagic's detection - in case the default magic file fails to detect a file, a database file can be created in order to extend the libmagic's detection.
