Subject: [PATCH] Add Linguist language override for include files (#1079)

Add a `linguist-language` Git attribute that matches the files at `include/gsl` and sets their language to C++. Without this override, these files are not detected as C++ code by [GitHub's Linguist](https://github.com/github/linguist) (likely due to lacking any file extensions).

This will cause GitHub.com to count these files correctly as C++ code and do syntax highlighting when browsing the repo.
