🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Complete the nested-list input path.

Lines 743-744 compute _n_features from a nested list, but Line 750 still evaluates X.shape[1]. The regression input therefore still raises AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'shape'. After removing this assignment, _get_column_indices() still reads X.shape[1] and _safe_indexing() reads X.ndim. Normalize nested sequences to a supported 2D array before these calls, or update all affected helpers to support column indexing for lists.

In `@python/cuml/cuml/_thirdparty/sklearn/preprocessing/_column_transformer.py` at
line 750, Complete the nested-list handling around _n_features by ensuring X is
normalized to a supported 2D array before _get_column_indices() and
_safe_indexing() access shape or ndim, or update both helpers to support nested
lists consistently; preserve the existing feature-count behavior for array
inputs.
