allow table* specification with #+ATTR_LaTeX:

Hi,

The attached patch allows the use of table* latex tables from within Org
mode documents using the attr_latex lines, for example

#+CAPTION: A wide table
#+LABEL: tbl:wide
#+ATTR_LaTeX: table* align=l|lp{3cm}r|l
| ... | ... |
| ... | ... |

Should this be added, or should we put together a more general solution
for different types of table environments?  Currently only longtable is
supported.  Also, is there already a way to do this that I have missed?

Thanks -- Eric
