Globalize flycheck-mode about flycheck HOT 9 CLOSED

I feel that using prog-mode-hook is good enough. Most programming modes that would benefit from flycheck are derived from prog-mode anyways.

@bbatsov Probably text-mode-hook too, to catch latex-mode and probably other markup languages, too, that might get syntax checkers in future.

#97 suggests that hooks may not be enough, even though the affected mode is badly written in this case.

@bbatsov I will merge the aforementioned commit into master soon. The recommended way to enable Flycheck globally is global-flycheck-mode then.

You may want to update Prelude accordingly once this issue is closed.

OK, I'll do that.

@bbatsov Ok, I'll notify you again once the branch is merged. Before that, it still needs some unit tests.

@bbatsov The branch is merged, (global-flycheck-mode) is now the recommended way to enable Flycheck.

You may want to use kind of a conditional construct in Prelude, though, to maintain compatibility with previous versions of Flycheck:

(if (fboundp 'global-flycheck-mode)
    (global-flycheck-mode)
  (add-hook …))

from flycheck.

Done.

Cool, thanks for your support.
