Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/documenso/documenso/issues/662

Feature Description

Currently there are only 4 core and important fields available.
I'd love to have some more fields and field types for more complex signatures in standard contracts / contract templates.

Use Case

Think: Address, Job Titles, Delivery Locations, etc.

Forms from old school governments (or other bureaucracies) that need to fill a long list of things into their forms.

Think: Tax forms, SEPA slips, etc.

Proposed Solution

The list below is kind of sorted by importance (the further down we go work arounds can be made using the custom text field)

1 more custom text field which I can use for people to fill in additional details such as addresses or whatever else custom they need to add;
groups of radio buttons to allow a single selection of say a product
groups of tick boxes to allow multi selection of say products
a date field that's not tied to the signature date/time (for say a delivery date).
a number field that signers to add a number.
a drop down field to select a single option out of multiple (similar to radio button)

Auto detection for fields in uploaded PDF's would be awesome too. Similar to how Preview.app on Mac does it.

Alternatives (optional)

Currently using Preview.app to fill in data for PDF's and then upload it to documenso.
Currently having to use a Google Docs template to create and add all final fields before uploading to documenso.

Additional Context

Being able to add ID's to each of these field types is something that can allow for standardised Metadata across contracts.

Say I have a Name Field for my Customer. I'd love to be able to give it a global standardised ID (customer_name) and thus ensure I can filter all contracts with that customer in the future (regardless of signer).

Or a start/end dates. Think of multi-year software contracts signed using documenso. I'd love to be able to have the ability to filter all my contracts based on the end_date field information. This would enable other implementations through an API which will allow me to create email reminders based on the contract signature. So I don't have to also keep track of that in my CRM system.

Please check the boxes that apply to this feature request.

I have searched the existing feature requests to make sure this is not a duplicate.
I have provided a detailed description of the requested feature.
I have explained the use case or scenario for this feature.
I have included any relevant technical details or design suggestions.
I understand that this is a suggestion and that there is no guarantee of implementation.

I'd love to have some more fields and field types for more complex signatures in standard contracts / contract templates. ### Use Case #### Cookie cutter contracts that only need a few more information points from the signers to ensure they are valid.
