jordi fita mas e4636592c5 Add payment relation and use it to compute the booking’s cart
I had to add the payment concept separate from the booking, unlike other
eCommerce solutions that subsume the two into a single “order”, like
WooCommerce, because bookings should be done in a separate Camper
instance that will sync to the public instance, but the payment is done
by the public instance.  There will be a queue or something between
the public and the private instance to pass along the booking
information once the payment is complete, but the public instance still
needs to keep track of payments without creating bookings.

To compute the total for that payment i had to do the same as was doing
until now for the cart.  To prevent duplications, or having functions
with complex return types, i now create a “draft” payment while the
user is filling in the form, and compute the cart there; from Go i only
have to retrieve the data from the relation, that simplifies the work,
actually.

Since the payment is computed way before customers enter their details,
i can not have that data in the same payment relation, unless i allow
NULL values.  Allowing NULL values means that i can create a payment
without customer, thus i moved all customer details to a separate
relation.  It still allows payment without customer, but at least there
are no NULL values.

Draft payments should be removed after a time, but i believe this needs
to be done in a cronjob or similar, not in the Go application.

To update the same payment while filling the same booking form, i now
have a hidden field with the payment slug.  A competent developer would
have used a cookie or something like that; i am not competent.

Customer wants to warn customers that plots are not guaranteed to be
next to each other.

jordi fita mas e5023a2a41 Handle the booking cart entirely with HTMx
Besides the dynamic final cart, that was already handled by HTMx, i had
to check the maximum number of guests, whether the accommodation allows
“overflow”, whether dogs are allowed, and that the booking dates were
within the campground’s opening and closing dates.

I could do all of this with AlpineJS, but then i would have to add the
same validation to the backend, prior to accept the payment.  Would not
make more sense to have them in a single place, namely the backend? With
HTMx i can do that.

However, i now have to create the form “piecemeal”, because i may not
have the whole information when the visitor arrives to the booking page,
and i still had the same problem as in commit d2858302efa—parsing the
whole form as is would leave guests and options field empty, rather than
at their minimum values.

One of the fieldsets in that booking form are the arrival and departure
dates, that are the sames we use in the campsite type’s page to
“preselect” these values.  Since now are in a separate struct, i can
reuse the same type and validation logic for both pages, making my
JavaScript code useless, but requiring HTMx.  I think this is a good
tradeoff, in fact.

jordi fita mas 2c36e45663 Compute and show the “cart” for the booking form
I have to ask number and age ranges of hosts of guests for all campsite
types, not only those that have price options for adults, children, etc.
because i must compute the tourist tax for adults.  These numbers will
be used to generate de rows for guests when actually creating the
booking, which is not done already.

To satisfy the campsite types that do have a price per guest, not only
per night, i had to add the prices for each range in the
campsite_type_cost relation.  If a campsite type does not have price
per person, then that should be zero; the website then does not display
the price.

The minimal price for any campsite type is one adult for one night,
thus to compute the price i need at least the campsite type, the dates,
and the number of adults, that has a minimum of one.  I changed the
order of the form to ask for these values first, so i can compute the
initial price as soon as possible.  To help further, i show the
<fieldset>s progressively when visitors select options.
