.dir-locals.el in AUCTeX tree

[Arash Esbati]

Hi all,

AUCTeX doesn't have a .dir-locals.el in the development tree.  There are
not many contributors, but I think it makes sense to have one.  Is there
a reason we don't have it?  Otherwise, I suggest to install one like
this which is mostly taken from Emacs[1]:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;;; Directory Local Variables

((nil . ((bug-reference-url-format . "https://debbugs.gnu.org/%s";)
         (fill-column . 70)
         (sentence-end-double-space . t)
         (tab-width . 8)))
 (change-log-mode . ((mode . bug-reference)
                     (add-log-time-zone-rule . t)
                     (fill-column . 74)))
 (emacs-lisp-mode . ((mode . bug-reference-prog)
                     (electric-quote-comment . nil)
                     (electric-quote-string . nil)
                     (indent-tabs-mode . nil)))
 (texinfo-mxode . ((mode . bug-reference-prog)
                  (electric-quote-comment . nil)
                  (electric-quote-string . nil)
                  (fill-column . 74))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I think the biggest change is to turn off `indent-tabs-mode' in
`emacs-lisp-mode'.

Any comments welcome.

Best, Arash
