Right now the Table block only allows the selection of a single cell. It would be great to allow selection of an entire row or column. Check out how Google Docs does this below.

I have a draft PR where I've started working on this - #16493

I had a look at document editors like atlaskit and dropbox paper (requires signup), both provide table, column and row selection buttons around the table. I thought this would be a good place to start. What do you think @mapk?

I left some notes on the PR, @talldan. It's looking sharp!

This is still relevant as of WordPress 6.6.1 and Gutenberg 19.1
