Together with -E, this shows a balance for both used and declared
accounts (excluding empty parent accounts, which are usually not
wanted in list-mode reports).
This is somewhat consistent with --declared in the accounts and payees
commands, except for the leaf account restriction.
The idea of this is to be able to see a useful "complete" balance
report, even when you don't have transactions in all of your declared
accounts yet. I mainly want this for hledger-ui, but there's no harm
in exposing it in the balance CLI as well.
Together with -E, this allows showing a balance for all accounts, both
used and declared. I mainly want this for hledger-ui, but there's no

This allows more control over how multicommodity amounts are displayed.
In addition to the default single-line display, and the recent commodity
column display, we now have multi-line display. This is controlled by
the --layout option, which has possible values "wide", "tall", and
"bare". The --commodity-column option has been hidden, but is equivalent
to --layout=bare.

Combining valuation with filtration is subtle and error-prone (see e.g. #1625).
We have to do in in both MultiBalanceReport and PostingsReport, where it
is done in slightly different ways. This refactors this functionality
into separate functions which are called in both reports, for uniform
behaviour.
rawOptsTo* in hledger-lib now takes a day as an argument, and does not
live in the IO monad, since it's now pure.
This is so that we can run tests containing future transactions that
won't fail as soon as ‘the future’ actually arrives.
We can't filter out empty commodity strings since that is a legitimate
group. Simultaneously, we should only include the empty commodity if it
is explicitly used (part of a posting) and not generated as part of
`Amounts.amounts`
A gain report will report on unrealised gains by looking at the
difference between the valuation of an amount (by default, --value=end),
and the valuation of the cost of the amount.
This adds the `--commodity-column` option that displays each commodity
on a separate line and the commodities themselves as a separate column.

The single-period balance report with `--commodity-column` does not
interoperate with custom formats.
rather than as a postprocessing step. (#1638)
This allows us to have a uniform procedure for balancing transactions,
whether they are normal transactions or forecast transactions, including
dealing with balance assignments, balance assertions, and auto postings.
To get the previous behaviour, you can call with the additional query "not📅tomorrow-".
This is because we are preparing to move forecast_ to InputOpts, where
it is not accessible to AccountTransactionsReport.
