Allow spellchecker for latex (.tex) files #102

Hi, I use jupyter lab for coding and writing latex documents. It would be wonderful if we could activate spellchecker in .tex files opened in jupyter lab.

You can already do that. Just go to Settings (/Advanced Settings Editor) -> Spellchecker and change mimeTypes to include latex. I tested that the following works for .tex files in JupyterLab 3.2:

{
    "mimeTypes": [
        "text/plain",
        "text/x-ipythongfm",
        "text/x-latex"
    ],
}

Ideally we would provide a list of mime types in to choose from. This would be a nice enhancment.

Great! I was suspecting a trick like this, but I did not know how to do it. Many thanks!
