[Cuis-dev] Tip: fix github misrecognition of Smalltalk sourcecode

Git can convert line endings automatically, but it doesn’t by default. At
some point Juan added a .gitattributes to the Cuis repo to make sure line
endings are not converted, and I just got it from there. I don’t remember
if I ever knew why exactly Juan did this, but I’m guessing it can be
significant with sources and changes files because they are indexed in the
image, and if line endings change from 1 to 2 characters the indices
wouldn’t point the start of methods any more.
