An actor for displaying and editing text

`ClutterText` is an actor that displays custom text using Pango as the text rendering engine.

`ClutterText` also allows inline editing of the text if the actor is set editable using `clutter_text_set_editable()`.

Selection using keyboard or pointers can be enabled using `clutter_text_set_selectable()`.

The signal is emitted once a transition is stopped; a transition is stopped once it reached its total duration (including eventual repeats), it has been stopped using clutter_timeline_stop(), or it has been removed from the transitions applied on `actor`, using clutter_actor_remove_transition().

###### Clutter.Actor::transitions-completed

The signal is emitted once all transitions involving `actor` are complete.

###### Clutter.Actor::unrealize

The signal is emitted each time an actor is being unrealized.
