Customization of orangeHRMS for sandwhich leave pattern

This is for deducting leaves (Saturday & Sunday | National Holiday) which comes under sandwhich rule.

For example, if an employee has taken leave on Friday and Monday and in between there are two weekly offs i.e, Saturday and Sunday, then these 2 days coming in between Friday and Monday will also be counted as leaves and total leaves will be 4.
