[Feature] Multiple payers for a single expense #633

Description

@FelixDz

Coming from Spliwise, in my opinion one of the last missing key features in Splitpro (which is quite mature now, thanks again for the huge work!) is the ability to have multiple people set as payers for a single expense.

Let's say you're five people, and order pizza (or you live in a flat-share and some pay the rent, or are a 30-people association and some bought drinks, etc). Two or three of the five people have some cash, and pay for everyone. You want to add this expense in Splitpro.

Current behaviour
Currently in Splitpro, since expenses can only have one payer, you'd have to create as many expenses as people having paid for the event, and do some tedious and over-complicated calculations to split everyone's owed amount across the different expenses. That's exactly what expense sharing apps strive to fight and ease!

Expected behaviour
One would ideally create a single expense with multiple payers – with each its contribution to the total amount, and with a real-time sum check (so that you don't forget anyone). Then one can enter the amount (or share, or percentage…) owed by every people involved, as usual.

How this works in Splitwise
In Splitwise, when selecting the payer, you can choose "Multiple people", which opens a form to enter anyone's contribution to the total paid amount.
