### PURPOSE
- In Guatemala, a Factura Especial (FESP) is a legal mechanism established in 
  Art. 52 of the VAT Law.
- Generate Factura Especial (FESP) when registering a purchase without a 
  supplier invoice.
- Include all required data: supplier as receiver, transaction details, and the 
  retention complement (100% VAT + ISR withholding).
- Ensure proper accounting: supplier payable = net after retentions, 
  taxes withheld = recorded as liabilities to be paid to SAT.
- Fulfill FEL technical requirements (DTE XML, mandatory phrase, retention
  complement, see example attached).

### SPECIFICATION
- Added flow for FESP (Factura Especial) document type in vendor bills.
- Automatically added Phrase Type 5, Scenario 1 (as required by SAT).
- Enforced mandatory data by raising UserError if FESP is selected but
  no withholding taxes are set on the product lines.
- Added complement generation for withheld taxes (IVA, ISR) with base, rate, 
  and amounts.
- Allow users to send a document to SAT in case of FESP. 
- Added required details in FEL XML for FESP.
