Hi!

I have been working for a while in a huge rewrite of PrettyTables.jl internals. When I first developed this package, it was thought to be something straightforward: take a matrix and print it in a formatted table. I did not think about cropping, highlighting, multiple back-ends, etc. The result was in a suboptimal code since added features without tweaking how information flows.

I take some time and fix the concept. The code is now in master. All tests are passing, but I really need help from people who normally uses PrettyTables.jl to check if I miss something. The more immediate advantage is the performance. Take a look at the time to print the first table between master and v1.3:

Notice that we have breaking changes in HTML and LaTeX environments. I would love feedback on that too.

The idea is to tag v2.0 when we are ready to be the LaTeX printing backend of DataFrames.jl.
