Research direction

Start with reference/docs-conceptual/developer/format/tablecolumnheader-element-format.md and compare the documented "centered" alignment value with the behavior reported in PowerShell 7.6.6. Update the documentation so the alignment guidance is valid, then verify the rendered page and relevant format.ps1xml example.
