Early payment discount
A vendor rewards early payment: the further ahead the payment, the larger the discount off the subtotal.
- Days early >= 10 earns a 2% discount, rounded down.
- Days early >= 5 (but under 10) earns a 1% discount, rounded down.
- Under 5 days earns no discount.
- The discount is floor(subtotal × percentage / 100).
earlyDiscount(subtotal: int, daysEarly: int) → int
