The scaffold material for cell culture according to claim 1 , wherein the polydentate hydrogen-bonding group is a polydentate hydrogen-bonding group represented by the following formula (2), the following formula (3), or the following formula (4): wherein R 1 represents a group having a cyclic skeleton and having 50 or less carbon atoms, A 1 and A 2 represent an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydroxyl group, a sulfone group, an imino group, or a thiol group, respectively, and * represents a bonding site with another atom constituting the graft chain; and A 1 and A 2 may be identical or different from each other, wherein R 1 represents a group having a cyclic skeleton and having 50 or less carbon atoms, R 2 represents a boron atom, a phosphorus atom, a silicon atom, a nitrogen atom, or a metal atom, A 1 and A 2 represent an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydroxyl group, a sulfone group, an imino group, or a thiol group, respectively, and * represents a bonding site with another atom constituting the graft chain; and A 1 and A 2 may be identical or different from each other, wherein R 3 represents a group having a chain skeleton and having 50 or less carbon atoms, A 1 and A 2 represent an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydroxyl group, a sulfone group, an imino group, or a thiol group, respectively, and * represents a bonding site with another atom constituting the graft chain; and A 1 and A 2 may be identical or different from each other. 3. The scaffold material for cell culture according to claim 2 , wherein the polydentate hydrogen-bonding group is a polydentate hydrogen-bonding group represented by the formula (2) or the formula (3). 4. The scaffold material for cell culture according to claim 1 , wherein the polydentate hydrogen-bonding group has two or more functional groups of at least one kind selected from the group consisting of an amino group, a carboxyl group, and a hydroxyl group. 5. The scaffold material for cell culture according to claim 1 , wherein the polydentate hydrogen-bonding group has at least one skeleton selected from the group consisting of a catechol skeleton, a phenylenediamine skeleton, a phenylboronic acid skeleton, a naphthaleneboronic acid skeleton, a glycerol skeleton, an ethylene glycol skeleton, and a glycine derivative skeleton. 6. The scaffold material for cell culture according to claim 1 , which does not substantially contain an animal-derived raw material. 7. The scaffold material for cell culture according to claim 1 , wherein the synthetic resin is a polyvinyl alcohol derivative or a poly(meth)acrylic ester derivative. 8. The scaffold material for cell culture according to claim 1 , wherein the synthetic resin has a polyvinyl acetal skeleton or a poly(meth)acrylic ester skeleton. 9. The scaffold material for cell culture according to claim 1 , wherein the synthetic resin has a polyvinyl acetal skeleton. 10. A cell culture container comprising: a container body; and the scaffold material for cell culture according to claim 1 , the scaffold material for cell culture being disposed on a surface of the container body. 11. A scaffold material for cell culture comprising a synthetic resin having a main chain and a graft chain, the graft chain having a polydentate hydrogen-bonding group represented by the following formula (1) in a side chain: [Chemical 1] *—R-(A i ) n   (1) wherein R represents a group having 50 or less carbon atoms, A i represents an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydroxyl group, a sulfone group, an imino group, or a thiol group, i represents a natural number, n represents an integer of two or more and four or less, and * represents a bonding position with another atom constituting the graft chain; and A i may be identical or different from each other, and wherein the polydentate hydrogen-bonding group has at least one skeleton selected from the group consisting of a catechol skeleton, a phenylenediamine skeleton, a phenylboronic acid skeleton, a naphthaleneboronic acid skeleton, a glycerol skeleton, an ethylene glycol skeleton, and a glycine derivative skeleton. 12.
