Lazy pivot to wide format
The dashboard team wants a wide month-by-format view of checkouts. Polars supports .pivot() in lazy mode when you specify the output column names in advance, which keeps the whole pipeline optimized end to end.
The LazyFrame monthly_checkouts holds totals in long format with a month, format, and total column, and the list formats holds every format name in the data.
