Feat/text alignment

[cowile]

Hello,

I attended the DFW Elixir Hack Night on 08/20 hosted by some of the codedge team. It was my first introduction to Elixir, but I liked what I saw and read most of the getting started guide later that night.

As thanks for hosting the event, I wanted to contribute something, so I have implemented cell-level text alignment for your pretty-printed tables. It uses a global format_opt currently. A more advanced feature could change alignment based on the type of data to cover a common convention of left-aligned text and right-aligned numbers, but I have other things on my plate considering offers to change jobs.

Thanks for this! Cell alignment has been on my roadmap, so this is a great first step.

I noticed a bug with center alignment. I suspect it's probably rounding errors with integer division.

iex(2)> Scribe.print(data, alignment: :center)

You are correct. More specifically, integer division of an odd number of padding spaces will lose one space. This commit should fix by calculating any remainder spaces needed.
