Inserts a child widget anchor into the text buffer at iter. The
anchor will be counted as one character in character counts, and
when obtaining the buffer contents as a string, will be represented
by the Unicode “object replacement character” 0xFFFC. Note that the
“slice” variants for obtaining portions of the buffer as a string
include this character for child anchors, but the “text” variants do
not. E.g. see TextBuffer.getSlice and
TextBuffer.getText. Consider
TextBuffer.createChildAnchor as a more convenient
alternative to this function. The buffer will add a reference to
the anchor, so you can unref it after insertion.
