Not only does this require a new layout on the PDF ballots, we also need to track the unique ID for each write-in slot, since that’s what’s in the EDF.

Write-in candidates are tagged in the EDF like this:

Election.Contest.ContestSelection."IsWriteIn": true

So, if a contest has (for example) three write-in candidates, then three separate CandidateSelections (and corresponding IDs) will be tagged with "IsWriteIn": true

Edit: Track IDs on all candidates not just write-ins.

Use 'ContestSelectionId's instead of a count for write-ins.
