[O] [PATCH] ox-latex.el: Wrap table into figure environment

[Xavier Garrido]

Hi Orgers,

Since I did not find another way to do it, I would like to submit the 
following patch

Maybe it is quite "counterintuitive" to use =figure= environment inside 
=table= env. but I heavily use tabular to put figures side-by-side or on 
a grid array (I guess I am not the only one). There may be a better way 
to achieve that...

Cheers,
Xavier
