    """Creates a reStructuredText (RST) table from JSON-formatted results.

     This function processes a JSON string, which is expected to contain
     structured results from a command or process execution. It parses the
     JSON and utilizes the `generate_table` function to format the data
     into a reStructuredText table.

     The primary use case is to present command or script execution outcomes
     in a structured table format. It includes error handling for malformed
     JSON input.

     Args:
         json_output (str): A JSON string representing execution results to
             be displayed in a table.

     Returns:
         str: A string containing the generated reStructuredText table of
             execution results.

     Raises:
         json.JSONDecodeError: If the input `json_output` string is not
             valid JSON.
