def tcc.cmd.startSlew.startSlew	(		tccActor,
			obj,
			slewCmd,
			doAbsRefCorr,
			doCollimate,
			minEndTime = 0
	)

Start a slew to the position specified in obj

Before calling, be sure to update obj as you like, applying wrap preferences
and doRestart such that obj.targetMount is as desired. StartSlew ignores wrap preferences
and will not slew axes whose targetMount is invalid.
Axes that exist and are not to be slewed are commanded to halt.

This happens in three stages:
- Send the DRIFT command the appropriate axis controllers
- Compute the slew
- Send the slew to the appropriate axis controllers

@param[in,out] tccActor  tcc actor with old obj block
    obj block is replaced by obj
@param[in,out] obj  new object block
@param[in,out] slewCmd  new slew command
@param[in] doAbsRefCorr  apply absolute fiducial corrections during this slew?
@param[in] doCollimate  trigger a collimation update (based on destination altitude)?
@param[in] minEndTime  minimum end time (TAI, MJD sec); 0 means no minimum
