Thanks for making this useful extension package!

For readability, I'm trying to position the text on the left-hand side of the bars using text_position = "outside-base" but it's leading to a misalignment of the bars due differences in the width of the text. Even when using number_fmt = scales::label_percent(trim = FALSE) which produces strings of equal width, I can't align the bars.

library(dplyr)
library(reactablefmtr)

iris %>% 
  group_by(Species) %>%
  summarise(petal_length_low = mean(Petal.Length < 4)) %>% 
  reactable(
    columns = list(
      petal_length_low = colDef(
        cell = data_bars(., 
                         text_position = "outside-base", 
                         number_fmt = scales::label_percent(trim = FALSE))
      )
    )
  )
  
# Text descriptions have equal width
scales::label_percent(trim = FALSE)(c(1, 0.22, 0))
[1] "100%" " 22%" "  0%"

I'm surprised this is happening though, as I'm using the latest version from github (2.1.0) and the source code seems to try and deal with this situation via stringr::str_pad() (see here).
