Description
We agreed (on IRC) to change the ?mutable-type= query parameter to a ?format= parameter with options chk, sdmf, and mdmf. For compatibility, the ?mutable=true flag would still be accepted and would mean the same as ?format=sdmf (at least for now). The values should be case-insensitive.
This way, if we add a new immutable format in future, it won't require a new query parameter. This also makes the implementation of #1547 easier.

I'm writing tests for this, so Kevan, you only need to do the docs and implementation.
Note that there's a "mutable-type" field in the returned JSON that should also be changed to "format", and should have the value "chk" for immutable uploads.
