tabType broken on settings change with no .editorconfig

[guandalf]

When editorconfig package is installed and no .editroconfig file is not present (I haven't tested with a .editorconfig file), changing any settings in the language-yaml builtin package, turns the tabType setting from soft to hard, resulting in hard tabs inserted in file while editing.

Forcing file type to something different from YAML and back to Autodetect, fixes the wrong tab behavior.
