Feature Request: Better output formats for GLM models

[Debartha Paul]

I had earlier opened this issue in GLM, but I was referred here (See JuliaStats/GLM.jl#543). I noticed that the outputs of GLM might be a bit confusing, mainly due to the fact that the number of digits after the decimal is not fixed. Consider the below case:

Coefficients:
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
                        Coef.  Std. Error       z  Pr(>|z|)   Lower 95%    Upper 95%

I was suggesting, how about fixing the number of digits after the decimal to a certain value, maybe based on the max number of digits in the output. The others could be filled out with 0's. Something like:

Coefficients:
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
                        Coef.  Std. Error       z  Pr(>|z|)   Lower 95%    Upper 95%

According to me, this looks a bit more ordered than the previous one.
