Subject: [patch] give tables their own default placement in LaTeX export

Hello,
attached is a small patch to give tables their own default placement in
LaTeX export. Up to now, tables have used the default placement for
figures but figures and tables are very different creatures so it does
not make sense to have just one default for both.
This patch unfortunately could break documents (if people have changed
the default for figures, expecting that change to apply to tables as
well) but I see no way to avoid this. So maybe not worth incorporating
but I leave that decision to others.
Thank you,
eric
