The layout of the forest plot is the layout of the data given to
forest, which draws the table and the confidence intervals.
The other parts are added with functions that take the plot as their first
argument, so they can be chained with the pipe |>:

set_xaxis Limits, tick marks and scale of the x-axis,
and vertical lines
set_labs Title, x-axis labels, footnote, arrow labels
and legend labels
scale_sizes Point sizes scaled by study weights
set_style Graphical parameters, see
forest_style
The plot is a gtable at every step, so it can be drawn,
saved with ggplot2::ggsave or combined with other plots. Afterwards it
can be edited cell by cell with edit_plot,
add_text, insert_text, add_border
and add_grob.
The vignettes vignette("forestploter-intro") and
vignette("forestploter-post") walk through both steps.
