[BUG] ob-doc-maxima.org and ob-maxima.el

Hi,

In worg's documentation of ob-maxima.el[fn:1], there are several bugs.


1. In the subsection `Inline Display of Maxima LaTeX Output', the
results are missing. This is because the code block is named
`solve-maxima', the same as in the section `Solver'. Export results in
that output being put in the `Solver' section (I don't know if that
should be considered a bug in Org). On the webpage, the errant output
has been deleted. The correct output in both sections should be
included.

2. In `3D Plots', the header arguments do not result in a link to a
generated file being created on evaluation of the code block. I am
unsure if this is a bug in Org, ob-maxima.el or ob-doc-maxima.org or
what. On reading the description of the =:results graphics=
header[fn:2], it looks like there is blame to go around. Related: in
ob-doc-octave.org, the graphics example only includes a =:results file=
header argument.

The attached patch to ob-doc-maxima.org fixes only the documentation
issues:

1. Present the correct output of code block `solve-maxima'.
2. Add the header argument `file' to the `3d-maxima' example to create a
correct link and graphics file.
3. Rename the tex code block to `tex-maxima' and change the results type
to =latex= to generate correct output.

TIA,
Leo Butler
