[Files] Add .fig files as supported (for MatLab)

Canvas will not open .fig file (Matlab). Installing MatLab Grader does not resolve the issue. Currently, the file must be downloaded in order to open or the professor must hand-code the correct html links in the code-behind screen, once the reference id of the file is obtained, but it takes a while and is prone to error.

CORRECTION:

Canvas will not allow the .fig file to be uploaded...just displays an "image" that you can't do anything with. Contacted Canvas Support and it has been escalated to Tier 2.
