Subject: [PATCH] .editorconfig: help maintain consistent style
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This is roughly based on QEMU's editorconfig but with different carve
outs for the vendored libraries. In practice the popt library looks
like it has a fair amount of whitespace damage so I don't know if it
would be worth doing a fixup commit to clean it up.
