Editable content in tables

[entwicklungevotech]

Description of the Feature

MDDataTable can display great tables to the user (text, nubmers, icons..). However, the user can not chang those values directly. To get some value changes, one has to create some UI (Laber, Text, Buttons) and code that by itself. It's time consuming, and need extra stuff where as the change could be done directly in the table.

you can find the modified the DataTAble example to change value. In a real app using some others UI stuff.

Example:

from kivy.metrics import dp

from kivymd.app import MDApp
from kivymd.uix.datatables import MDDataTable
from kivymd.uix.screen import MDScreen


class Example(MDApp):
    def build(self):
