Handle special payment methods in BisqEasy trades #1330

At the moment, regardless of the payment method, the same steps/states are set for BisqEasy once the trade starts:

For cases like Face2Face or CashByMail these steps do not apply, and it does not seem possible for the user to continue moving forward. Perhaps a simpler template, with just wait for payment, awaiting bitcoin confirmation and completed would be enough in these cases.

I would consider those payment methods as exceptional. Even in Bisq 1 I think there are very few such trades. I think the cost to make the UI more generic is too high and also dev cost to handle those payment methods extra. Though that might be less problematic (e.g. to change the headline text, button text and input area text for those methods).

The seller is expected to be a pro Bisq user (reputation requires that). So they could arrange via chat anything they want. It provides a lot of flexibility and not require that they use the trade step wizard to follow through the trade.
