Description
## Job Story
When configuring a new Table field type, I want to define column names as part of the setup, so I can ensure the table has a clear structure before any data is entered.
## Acceptance Criteria
* [ ] Selecting "Table" as the field type shows a column configuration UI
* [ ] Each column has a display name and a key field
* [ ] Column keys are included in the JSON output (e.g. `{ "co2_tonnes": 42, "year": 2024 }`)
* [ ] Column keys can be used to reference table values in the math block
* [ ] Column keys can be used to reference table values in the custom logic block
* [ ] Column values can be fetched via the APIs using the column key
* [ ] Users can add at least one column with a custom name and key
* [ ] Users can remove columns (minimum of 1 required)
* [ ] Users can reorder columns
* [ ] Field description input is still present and functional

## Enhancement Summary
When a user selects **Table** as a field type, the configuration panel currently only prompts for a field description. There is no way to define column names or column keys for the table upfront. Without a stable key per column, data cannot be reliably indexed or accessed via the math block, custom logic block, or APIs.
## Steps to Reproduce
1. Create a draft schema
2. Add a field as a table type
3. Try to add column headers (not possible at the moment)
4. Try to reference a table column value in a math block, custom logic block, or via API (not possible at the moment)
## Expected Result
When **Table** is selected as the field type, the configuration panel should expose a **Column configuration** section where each column has:
* A **display name** — the human-readable label shown in the UI
* A **key** — a stable, unique identifier used in the JSON output, APIs, math blocks, and custom logic blocks (e.g. `year`, `co2_tonnes`)
## Actual Result
_Only a field description can be added._
