Write formulas to XLSX files.
Ref this issue: https://github.com/box/spout/issues/424
I utterly understand that reading formulas is a pain. It should be noted that writing formulas to ODS is rather a pain, too, but the nature of xlsx actually makes it rather easy to write them.
This way, we can use the super-performant spout when we want to generate an xlsx file that needs to contain some excel formulas, and I don't think this lands outside of the goals of Spout.
I await your judgement!

Thanks @stevesweets ! Most likely, this won't be merged until v3 is released. v3 should make it easier to work with formulas. But I'll keep the PR open, as a reference for future implementation.
