Stop compile button added

There has been a little gap in our PDF complier for a while now, occasionally everyone misses a bracket or is having a hard time working on tikz and they need the ability to cancel a compile.

We are really pleased to say that we have now added a 'stop compile' button that will cancel a compile during compilation. You will no longer have to wait for a compile to timeout if the LaTeX is caught in a loop, instead look for the square stop button during compile.

We know lots of you are already really happy with this addition.
