Subject: [PATCH] feat: phantom bom (#50351)

* feat: add phantom bom settings in bom doctype

* feat: new explosion logic for production plan, subcontracting and work order/manufacturing

* feat: modify explosion logic in reports and bom creator

* fix: failing test

* feat: add convert to phantom item support in bom creator

* test: added test cases

* fix: always fetch rm rate if phantom bom

* refactor: PP phantom explosion logic

* fix: report test cases

* feat: add phantom item in description of item if phantom item in bom tree

* fix: hide create button if bom is phantom

* fix: bugs found by coderabbit
