Title: Adding features...

The following features were added:

* Multiple row and column support for cells in HTML and LaTex.
* The ability to include HTML img tags in a table and have them appear in the LaTex output.
* align method to the Table class for global alignment changes.
* cell method to the Table class for cell editing by reference and cell attribute introspection.

Existing Problems:

* Images imported into LaTex do not respect any scaling done in the HTML img tag and will be rendered at full scale.
* When using a cell that spans multiple rows the multirow package must be manually added to the tex file preamble before it can be successfully converted to a pdf, e.g. "\usepackage{multirow} % to support multiple rows". There is a warning that appears that informs the user of this issue when a cell is made to span more than one row.

Changes I would like to include but don't know how:

* Add SVG image inclusion to the images that can be supported in the table. I did not test this, but based on the documentation I read about the LaTex includegraphics tag it does not support SVG graphics.

Additional remarks:

* I did not add myself to the author details in the setup file but should you accept the pull request I would like to be added. (Damon Allen, damontallen@gmail.com)
