The table layout manager has various issues:
• no support for RTL flipping
• most of the layout API is legacy, and has been replaced by the
alignment and expansion flags on ClutterActor
• the animation API is legacy, and has been replaced by the
implicitly animatable allocation
• the spanning cells handling is a bit awkward, as is its API
On top of that, we imported the grid layout management policy from GTK+
into ClutterGridLayout, which provides all the required features in a
more well-designed API.
Instead of wasting time and resources updating TableLayout, we should
deprecate it and point developers of the GridLayout.
