4475	MC cannot view .docx files	pelya		"Opening MS Word .docx files with F3 button fails. I've looked through doc.sh script and installed all the obscure .docx to text conversion tools listed there - wvHtml, elinks, antiword, catdoc, and none of these tools work with .docx files saved with MS Word 2007 or newer.
On the other hand, the default Debian and Ubuntu installation includes LibreOffice out of the box, and LibreOffice can convert any version of .docx file to text using --cat flag.

I'm adding a patch to use LibreOffice by default for viewing MS Word documents with F3 button.

Tested on MC 4.8.26 on Debian 10."	defect	new	minor	Future Releases	mc-core	master						no branch
