Separate the extra standard deduction amounts for aged and blind

[MaxGhenis]

The extra standard deductions for aged and blind filers are specified in https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/26/63#f as separate parameters in sections 1 and 2.

However, we implement it as a single parameter, since they are the same value. Both to stay closer to the law and for clarity (e.g., I was initially unsure whether people who are both aged and blind get twice the extra amount), I'd suggest we separate them.

Yeah they should definitely be separate - age by itself won't get you Medicaid eligibility, it's just relevant for additional qualifications. (Assuming I'm understanding the implication of separating the parameters)

@fedderw This is for federal income taxes rather than Medicaid

whoops, my bad. I'm a little mixed up. I think I did mean to say this somewhere though 🤔
