CellEditableIF.startEditing

Begins editing on a @cell_editable.

The #GtkCellRenderer for the cell creates and returns a #GtkCellEditable from gtk_cell_renderer_start_editing(), configured for the #GtkCellRenderer type.

gtk_cell_editable_start_editing() can then set up @cell_editable suitably for editing a cell, e.g. making the Esc key emit #GtkCellEditable::editing-done.

Note that the @cell_editable is created on-demand for the current edit; its lifetime is temporary and does not persist across other edits and/or cells.
