Fixes #32155
What does this implement/fix?
ColumnTransformer.fit_transform failed on polars.DataFrames, if some transformers, but not all, returned a sparse matrix/array. In this case, the function tried to access a .size attribute, which is not implemented for polars.DataFrame. The bug was fixed by instead resorting to the .shape attribute which is universally implemented across numpy/pandas/polars. Tests in test_column_transformer_sparse_stacking were updated to not only test stacking of sparse matrix outputs from numpy inputs, but also from polars and pandas inputs.
Any other comments?
I also improved the docstring of the internal _convert_container helper function to indicate constructor_name="pandas" is a valid input.
