LF is the defacto standard since it's used by Mac and Linux and Windows are mostly fine with it (batch files may be the only exception). Until this commit most of the files in this repo used a LF line endings anyway, the only exception were *.ino files which mostly used CRLF with couple of lines with LF. These mixed line endings cause troubles to those using VSCode since it doesn't support it (microsoft/vscode#127) so it's impossible to save a changed file without normalizing its line endings. This commit also introduces .gitattribute and .editorconfig files which will ensure correct formating in the future (strangely Arduino IDE doesn't support the latter one arduino/Arduino#8804).

It would be great if the editor/IDE supported reading EditorConfig files (see https://editorconfig.org/).
I don't think I need to introduce it, since it is being used in arduino itself ;), but overall EditorConfig state some basic editor parameters such as indentation width, tabs vs spaces and tab width.
It would be great if the IDE supported reading these files and setting whatever it is currently feasible to support. It would make the life of maintainers accepting patches created with the IDE much easier.
