This will make mimetypes.MimeTypes().guess_extension('audio/x-wav') no longer work. Is that expected?

Yes, we can only have a single type per extension with this dict implementation (there's also #122632 that proposes dealing with duplicates; I've not looked closely at it).
If we can only choose one, I think handling for the standards-based type is more useful than an x- extension.
Also mimetypes.MimeTypes().guess_type('filename.wav') now gives the preferred result.
This is also a reason why this kind of change is only made as a feature with no backports. But happy to revert this one if you prefer.
