This patch changes the functionality of orgtbl-to-orgtbl so that it will
remove newline characters from the text of table cells and replace them
with "\n". This protects the final table from such newlines.
This patch will probably only have any noticeable effect for tables
imported form external files, or from the results of code blocks.

Subject: [PATCH] org-table: will now strip newlines from the text of table cells
* lisp/org-table.el (orgtbl-to-generic): added the :remove-newlines
option which will strip newline characters from the text of table
cells and replace then with "\n"
(orgtbl-to-orgtbl): now using the new :remove-newlines option to
orgtbl-to-generic
* lisp/org.el (org-edit-special): Make sure source code editing goes
before table formula editing.
* lisp/org-table.el (org-table-fedit-map): "C-c '" will now also exit
the formula editor.
* lisp/org-compat.el (org-string-match-p):
(org-looking-at-p): New functions.
* lisp/org-table.el (org-table-align): Handle raised text with
invisible characters.
* lisp/org.el (org-script-display): Add raise properties for tables.
(org-raise-scripts): Handle raising differently inside tables.
Pretty display of subscripts and superscripts no longer messes up
table alignment. This is achieved by two things:
1. Inside tables, the raised characters are not made smaller, they
remains at the same size. Instead they are raise/lowered more, by
a full half character height to still be clearly readable as
subscript or superscript.
2. The invisible characters are taken into account when computing the
field width.
