Inputs are given default mimetype
## Description

If an input has multiple supported formats, birdy will always use the first one in the list when creating a request. If an input has to be embedded in the request, and its mimetype is a binary format while the default mimetype is not, it crashes the `embed` function. 

## Environment

* Birdy version used, if any: 0.6.6
