Implement longtable support for LaTeX export.

Exporting tables to LaTeX suffered from the problem that Org tables
are often long, but that the tabular environment in LaTeX cannot
handle long tables.  This patch fixes this issue.

LaTeX export can now deal with very long tables, by setting an option
in the "ATTR_LaTeX:" line.  Also, you can specify the alignment by
hand.  Here is an example:

Also, table export now correctly deals with tables that start with a
hline.  In such a case, also the LaTeX version will have this extra
hline before the first line.

For /images/, this string is directly inserted into
the optional argument of the ~\includegraphics[...]{file}~
command, to specify scaling, clipping and other options.
This string will not be processed, so it should have
immediately the right format, like =width=5cm,angle=90=.\\
For /tables/, this can currently only be the keyword
=longtable=, to request typesetting of the table using the
longtable package. This LaTeX package will automatically
distribute the table over several pages if needed.
For LaTeX export, if either a caption or a label is given, the
element will be exported as a float, i.e. wrapped into a figure
