I found a complete list of file extensions and mime types from Google itself in GitHub:

google-drive-proxy / DriveProxy / API / MimeType.cs

From Drive REST API reference:

Maximum file size: 5120GB

Accepted Media MIME types: */*

In other words, you can use any mime type that matches the pattern */*.

Here is the IANA list of official media types. You can learn more about media types here.
