Get clean names of model parameters
This function "cleans" names of model parameters by removing
patterns like "r_" or "b[]" (mostly applicable to Stan models)
and adding columns with information to which group or component parameters
belong (i.e. fixed or random, count or zero-inflated...)
The main purpose of this function is to easily filter and select model parameters,
in particular of - but not limited to - posterior samples from Stan models,
depending on certain characteristics. This might be useful when only selective
results should be reported or results from all parameters should be filtered
to return only certain results (see print_parameters).

The Effects column indicate if a parameter is a fixed
or random effect. The Component can either be conditional
or zero_inflated. For models with random effects, the Group
column indicates the grouping factor of the random effects. For multivariate
response models from brms or rstanarm, an additional Response
column is included, to indicate which parameters belong to which response
formula. Furthermore, Cleaned_Parameter column is returned that
contains "human readable" parameter names (which are mostly identical to
Parameter, except for for models from brms or rstanarm,
or for specific terms like smooth- or spline-terms).
A data frame with "cleaned" parameter names and information on
effects, component and group where parameters belong to. To be consistent
across different models, the returned data frame always has at least four
columns Parameter, Effects, Component and
Cleaned_Parameter. See 'Details'.
