Description

### Feature Description

I have a `matTable` which includes a footer-row.
I would like to use the `mat-text-column`. However, it does not support a footer-def.
Therefore I would like to suggest adding a `footer-def` to the text-column. The footer-cell could also get a `footerText` like it is used for the header-cell and maybe be optional.

### Use Case

Research direction

Start at the Angular Material mat-text-column entry point and inspect how its existing header-cell and headerText are implemented. Compare it with footer-row usage in matTable, then define completion as mat-text-column supporting an optional footer definition and footerText with coverage for the requested footer behavior.
