      Description

      As part of CORE-3810 domain renew dates are sync'd with their expiration dates. Under Billing > Domains, we show the registration and expiration dates of domains.

      We want to continue showing the expiration date, but we may need to store the expiration date separate to the renew date, since the renew date is an internal value used to determine when to invoice a service.

      OR - ALTERNATIVELY, this might be better, we allow different types of services to be invoiced at different periods. Perhaps we have a setting to override "Invoice Days Before Renewal" based on the module type. Currently we have module types in the module_types table of "generic" and "registrar". If we could set a different value for the type, like "registrar" we could override this. So if an override is set, when we renew services we would filter somehow on the module type. This could allow us to renew domains on a different schedule than normal services,

      When domains are invoiced, and the invoice is due on the expiration date of the domain, it's more likely that the domain will expire before it is paid. On the other hand if the invoice is due 30 days prior to the domain expiring, then it's more likely to be paid before it expires.

      So, anywhere we show domain listings (Billing > Domains, in the client area, or in the client profile page) we want to show the expiration date, but the renew date may be different.

      The renew date would by sync'd to the expiration date, and then offset by a certain number of days. The number of days should be configurable under Packages > Domain Options > Configuration: General.

      Renew Days Before Expiration
      Same Day
      1 Day
      2 Days
      ...
      90 Days

      Tooltip: When domains are invoiced, the invoice will be due this number of days prior to the domains expiration date.

      As an example, if the domains expiration date is October 31, 2022 and the "Renew Days Before Expiration" is set to 30 then the renew date should be set to October 1, 2022 (Renew Date = Expiration Date - Days).
