Plot effect estimates with confidence intervals

Given a dataframe with columns variable, estimate, se, and a column for the size of the points, this function creates a sort of forest plot. The dataframe can contain as many rows as results to be plotted. The variable column can contain e.g., the names of the exposures, estimate is the point estimate obtained e.g., with a linear model, while se is the standard error of the estimate.
