Description

Hi,

I noticed that GOGS use an old version of Codemirror http://codemirror.net/. Is it possible to upgrade it?
I already did some work around on my own GOGS, so I could propose a pull request.
Moreover, I saw that codemirror permits some very interesting features, for example it can do syntactic correction http://codemirror.net/doc/manual.html#addon_lint.
It could be very interesting for GOGS to propose this features. What do think about this proposal?

Thank you.
