Guarantees

Some procurement processes consider the specification of guarantees in order to ensure compliance with the terms of a contract. There are many types of guarantees, so we consider the creation of a new extension based on the formats that are required for the Federal Treasury (Mexico). See discussion in https://github.com/open-contracting/standard/issues/651
