Regression in 7.0.0: removing change in beforeChange breaks table

[aaronbeall]

Description

As of upgrading to 7.0.0 we ran into an issue where canceling a date cell change in beforeChange breaks the table -- the cell renders stuck in edit and editing other cells doesn't work. At this point I've noticed this happens with date and autocomplete cells but not text cells. I haven't checked other cell types.

Example demo where beforeChange removes the first change:

Steps to reproduce

1. Add a beforeChange hook which performs changes.splice(0, 1)
2. Create a date or autocomplete column.
3. Edit a cell in one of those columns and commit.

Thank you for reporting and investigating the issue. You're right. The 7.0.0 is one to blame here. The editor does not close and selection gets broken.

In the meantime I have a workaround to set the nextValue to the prevValue in beforeChange, then in afterChange I filter out all changes where prevValue==nextValue. I would still think this should be fixed, since the docs describe using null or splice() in beforeChange which currently doesn't work for some cell types.

I'm glad to see another issue fixed. Thank you Aaron :)
the fix is available in v 7.1.1.
