Add CZ VAT Register directly; Bank Account Information and unreliable tax payer status to CZ VAT data source

The current CZ Data Sources do not provide the CZ VAT status directly.


Following advantage in adding the CZ VAT register directly compared to VIES or FON.AT:

In Czech Republic all Bank Accounts of companies which are allowed to be used in business transactions must be published in the Czech Republic register. Currently, the data sources are not fetching this information back via the interface.

Further, in CZ there is a unreliable Tax Payer Process. If a company is not reliable in paying the VAT dues to authorities or is caught in VAT fraud the company is flagged with an "unreliable tax payer" status. This means that customers of such flagged companies needs to pay the VAT directly to authorities instead to the supplier. Above a certain VAT threshold the customer will be hold liable for the VAT payment to authorities. Hence, it would be very interesting to get the VAT reliability status along with bank account information via the public CZ register.
