i am not sure of why this eveolved this way, but i suspect we anticipate
someone specifying a payment means without any actual payment.

PaymentMeans can apply to the whole Invoice, to individual
AllowanceCharges that apply the whole Invoice or to specific
AllowanceCharges for each LineItem.

We do not separate LineExtensionTotalAmount, but i think you may be able
to do so by using an AllowanceCharge.ID to denote this.
