Improve/fix LaTeX formula integration

[jotech]

hm the latex thing seems unstable indeed! What I can say is that editing worked with the baumgarr version. And only some latex code seems to cause a sync error. Will try to figure it out in more detail!

Thanks @jotech. I use LaTeX a fair bit for AI which requires non-trivial formulae. Appreciated.

[robert7]

I plan to fix it in the near future.

@jotech @HaleTom
I fixed the LaTeX integration as far I could. It seems to work now.

Pls check. It works from version 2.1.2-f.
The formula is internally rendered by "mimetex", so you need to have it installed and NixNote accepts the formulas which mimetex can understand.

@robert7 sorry I just updated to >2.1.2-f !
As far as I can see right now, it is working. I'm quite happy to have it back :o)
Thank you very much!

[jotech]

Is it worth to think about something else than mimetex because its output has lower quality?
Maybe textogif or tex2im are alternatives with higher quality formulas?

[robert7]

@jotech maybe; so I let the issue open
