textscreen: Add TXT_MakeTable().

When creating a table widget is is often convenient to be able to create
and populate it in a single function call. It's possible to do this with
"horizontal boxes" already but there wasn't a more generic mechanism for
making a table. So add one as TXT_MakeTable().
