Fixes #1300

format_table() with select = "ci" or a {ci} pattern always wrote "CI" in the column name, although the CI column's name already holds the level. The column name now uses that name, so print(x, select = "ci") and print(x, select = "{estimate} ({ci})") both show Coefficient (95% CI). If the level isn't known (a plain CI or conf.int column), the name stays CI.

With two levels, select = "ci" still shows only the first one, as it did before. The column name now says which one it is, for example Coefficient (80% CI).

This changes expected output in two other packages, and those tests need updating once this is merged:

• parameters: 5 tables in _snaps/compare_parameters.md and 3 [CI] headers in the "select pattern" test in test-printing.R
• modelbased: 3 tables in _snaps/print.md (test-print.R only runs on Windows)

Only the header lines and the column widths change. I ran the parameters, modelbased and report tests against this branch, and report isn't affected.

That's a bit high ;-)

What changed in this PR

Updates format_table() so CI selections/patterns reflect the CI level in the rendered column header (e.g., Coefficient (95% CI)), and adjusts tests/docs accordingly.

Changes:

• Pass CI column name(s) into the glue/pattern naming helper so {ci} can render with the appropriate level.
• Update existing test expectations and add new tests covering CI-level header behavior (including multi-level and unknown-level cases).
• Document the change and bump package version.

File	Description
tests/​testthat/​test-format_table_ci.R	Adds new tests asserting CI level appears in column headers for select = "ci" and {ci} patterns.
tests/​testthat/​test-format_table.R	Updates snapshot expectations for CI column headers to include 95% where applicable.
R/​format_table_glue.R	Extends .style_pattern_to_name() to use CI column name (with level) when replacing {ci}.
NEWS.md	Documents updated header behavior for CI selections/patterns.
DESCRIPTION	Bumps package version to 1.7.0.1.

I went through Copilot's review and left both notes as they are. The (devel) NEWS heading is how this package labels unreleased changes, so it stays even with 1.7.0.1 in DESCRIPTION. The other note asks to accept CI names like 95%CI or 95% CI (HPD), but .format_glue_table() only treats a column as a CI column if its name ends in CI, is CI or is conf.int, so those names never reach the new code.
