Feature request: support for editorconfig max_line_length

[mmorearty]

As described here, editorconfig supports max_line_length. It would be nice if Reflow had the ability to use that to determine max line length.

Hi, sorry I didn't get a notification for this, for whatever reason.

Yes that should be possible. Are you using the VSCode or the Visual Studio version?

I’m on the VSCode version.

Thanks. The reason I ask is because I wonder whether it would be better to ask for an extra feature from the editorConfig extension that takes the max_line_length value and creates an editor.rulers setting in the workspace settings.json file. The ruler would then be a helpful guide in the editor and Rewrap can already use rulers anyway.

I see there was a already an issue in editorconfig/editorconfig-vscode#53 but although the editor.rulers solution was mentioned there it wasn't really discussed; it was mostly about soft-wrapping.
