    public class SpreadSheetConvertCells
    extends AbstractInPlaceSpreadSheetTransformer
    Finds cells in a spreadsheet and converts them with a conversion scheme.
    If the conversion scheme generates a adams.data.spreadsheet.SpreadSheet object itself, this will get merged with the enclosing one: any additional columns get added and the content of the first row gets added to the row the converted cell belongs to.

    Input/output:
    - accepts:
       adams.data.spreadsheet.SpreadSheet
    - generates:
       adams.data.spreadsheet.SpreadSheet
