Add Zero for Skipped Frequent Expenditure Types — add_expenditure_type_zero

This function adds zero values to frequent expenditure types that were skipped in the survey. Frequent expenditures are defined as those with a 30-day recall period. The function also ensures that when no expenditure is reported, all expenditure types are set to zero.
