Table options in a 'knitr' context

Get options for table rendering in a 'knitr' context. It should not be used by the end user, but its documentation should be read as a place where table options are documented when 'knitr' is used.

The function is a utility to facilitate the retrieval of table options supported by the 'flextable', 'officedown' and 'officer' packages.

These options should be set with knitr::opts_chunk$set(). The names and expected values are listed in the following sections.
