Schedule 8812

[philiplantz]

Schedule 8812 line 5 should be 0 if line 4a is 0.

Part I-B is blank, but I think that is a result of the first problem.

Part III line 33 is 40,000. It should be 60,000 for married filing jointly.
Line 34 should be line 3 minus line 33. Instead it is equal to line 3.

I don't have a way to build and test yet, so I'm just putting this here for safekeeping.

Schedule8812.ts
line 127 insert:
if ((this.l4a() ?? 0) === 0) {
return 0
}

line 128 should be: l4b() * 3600

line 483 should be:
if (fs === FilingStatus.MFJ || fs === FilingStatus.W)

line 492 should be:
const l34 = Math.max(0, this.l3() - this.l33())

This fixes the problems in lines 5, 33, and 34.

Unfortunately I forgot to include the problem with line 10 in the original bug report.

Line 10 has the subtraction reversed. It should be line 3 minus line 9.
l10 = (): number => Math.max(0, nextMultipleOf1000(this.l3() - this.l9()))

Good catch, updated.

Schedule 8812 now seems to be filled out correctly.
However, line 14h of schedule 8812 should be entered online 19 of form 1040, but line 19 is still blank.

@philiplantz Since you were such a great help in reviewing Schedule 8812, would you like to review the advance child tax credits pull request: #1112?

Aside from the impact of 2225 which we haven't started yet, this should be the last step for 8812.
