Payment lifecycle

Creating a checkout session also creates its payment (payment field), with status requires_payment_method.

Status	Meaning
`requires_payment_method`	Waiting for the shopper, or the last attempt was declined
`processing`	An attempt is being processed
`requires_action`	The shopper must complete 3D Secure or a redirect
`authorized`	Funds reserved (manual capture)
`partially_captured`, `captured`	Funds captured
`partially_refunded`, `refunded`	Money returned to the shopper
`canceled`	Authorisation canceled before capture
`expired`	The session expired without a payment
`disputed`	A dispute is open
`charged_back`	A dispute was lost

After authorisation the status always follows the amounts (amount_captured, amount_refunded, amount_disputed), so status and money can never disagree.
