Add cash flow to supplemental-report columns. It's net outlay
minus proceeds paid.

I've postponed this for two reasons:

(1) It's potentially confusing until we add a list of column
definitions. Many other definitions of "cash flow" are possible.

(2) This column and many others that might be useful are simply
linear combinations of other columns, with scalar coefficients
of 1 and -1. We need a general facility to let users define such
columns. Spending time on special cases distracts us from that
strategic goal: it'd be throwaway work. COLI cash-flow reports
tend to be highly customized, and would need to be created
externally (e.g., in a spreadsheet) anyway until we achieve that
strategic goal.
