`status` command has wrong headers
Metadata
Current evaluation
charmcraft status command displays 'Channel' header instead of 'Risk' and omits a Branch column when branch releases exist. Reported by a maintainer, synced to Jira (CRAFT-3717), but no fix has landed in the codebase as of the latest commit.
Suggested action: keep open
Reason: The issue was filed by a maintainer (lengau) and synced to internal Jira (CRAFT-3717), indicating it was acknowledged. The current code at line 1140 of store.py still uses headers = ["Track", "Base", "Channel", "Version", "Revision"] with no Branch column, confirming the bug persists. Last activity was 381 days ago with no fix merged, but the issue remains valid and relevant to the current codebase.

The status command incorrectly duplicates branch entries across architectures due to server-side data handling.
