Support of subcaption package about lni

[sieversMartin]

I just checked. The definition only adds \small to \@makecaption. Thus I will add the caption package.

I changed the handling of captions.

Well, yes, this solves the problem as far as I can see.

However, your issue points to a more general problem: The lni class redefines the macro \@makecaption directly. When you now load subcaption you load caption implicitly. The later, however, changes the complete caption mechanism, i.e. it throws away the class's modifications. It uses its own macro \caption@@make to control the caption's layout.

One way out of this dilemma would be to directly use the caption package within the lni class. The alternative would be to check for modifications at the end of the preamble and to turn them back. This could even be done very elegantly using the scrlfile package from the KOMA-Script bundle.

@koppor What do you think?

+1 for using the caption package. It is maintained and we should not implement custom solutions.

I do however not load the subcaption package automatically.
