The table control could use a scroll bar #29

Currently when the table cannot accomodate all rows in the screen I am seeing 
an exception similar to the one when adding a checkbox to a table fails. It 
would be useful if the table supported a scroll bar to run through the entries.

There should be some kind of component like the ScrollPane in Swing, but that's 
not easy to make.

The scroll that you added for the listbox works like a charm. How about 
generalizing that?

Personally I'd like to see a full ScrollPane implementation with support for a 
Header displaying column names

Yes, that would be nice... Maybe something for the next version, as I'm 
thinking of releasing 2.1.0 soon.

Indeed, I implemented my own scrolling table with header (see attached).
Important things that might matter to others:
- selectable rows (row selection indicator can span the whole row)
- sortable by passing a row comparator

My current implementation is quite hacky since most things in lanterna Table 
are private: I wrapped a lanterna Table inside a Panel and rebuild the whole 
table when scrolling! Table being internally column based makes the scrolling 
code slightly awkward, but hey it works and looks good ;)

I've added it to the todo-list for 3.0
