tipographycally better toc formatting

In LaTeX table of contents, the tabulator fill characters are aligned in each row, and there is a big space between them. This is tipographically much better than the dense dotted version of LibreOffice. There is a spacing option in the character styles in LO, but the fill is unaffected by this option.

Summary edited for clarity. These characters are commonly referred to as dot leaders.
