[MonoDevelop] F# addin and TabsToSpaces

[Mike Krüger]

Hi

In monodevelop master I added a property to the text editor/text editor 
data calles 'TabsToSpaces'.
There you can overwrite that option. When adding a text editor extension 
you can do that in the initializing part of it.

I hope it helps - feedback would be appreciated.

Regards
Mike
