Create Bond Class

In Tinubu Surety Solution for Carriers (TSSC), a bond class is one of the defining criteria for a bond configuration.  For Commercial Bonds, there are five criteria (State, Class, Category, Obligee, and Carrier).  For Contract Bonds, there are three criteria (Class, Category, and Carrier).  The combination of these credentials must be unique per bond configuration.
