Align with scikit-learn’s SelectorMixin API

[nworb-cire]

This updates the estimator to comply with scikit-learn’s SelectorMixin API. With this change, the estimator behaves consistently with scikit-learn’s native selectors, allowing it to plug seamlessly into any pipeline or utility that expects the standard selector interface.

Importantly, the estimator’s underlying logic and outputs remain unchanged. The SelectorMixin class has been part of scikit-learn since version 0.11 (released in 2012), so this update introduces no backward-compatibility concerns.

Hi @nworb-cire

I am Sole, helping @danielhomola maintain the library.

The proposed change makes sense, thanks a lot for the PR.

Could you please rebase master onto this? We just migrated from unittest to pytest and added automatic testing to make reviewing easier.

It would also be helpful if you could add a few tests that evaluate that the addition you are making here result in the expected functionality.

I tried to look at the source code of SelectorMixin vs TransformerMixin earlier today, but the website was on maintenance, so I don't have on the top of my head the differences brought forward by this change, but these are the ones that we'd need tests for.
