The "fees" or "extra fees" or "customer fees" feature was meant to make
customers pay for the processing fee charged by the payment provider
they choose to make their payment. The fee was also displayed on the
payment form to deter customers and encourage them to choose another,
cheaper, payment provider.
In practice, it didn't hold up because:
1. the provider's API must allow sending the fee as a separate amount,
and PayPal was the only supported provider to do it;
2. charging extra fees is highly discouraged by providers, and forbidden
in Europe;
3. the final fee amount depends on the customer, country, payment
method, risk profile... rendering charging the actual fees amount
infeasible;
4. most of the time, only one payment provider is enabled at a time,
thus alienating customers who would have no other choice than paying
the fee;

Changing the name of model payment.acquirer to payment.provider
and everything that it touches. It is technically incorrect to
use the term "acquirer" for systems that only provide a service
of payment.
After this commit the model payment.acquirer and all related to
it will be renamed to payment.provider.

Notification handling in some acquirers presents a subset of the
following issues:
1. The signature of synchronous notifications (redirect payloads) is not
checked. (Alipay, Authorize, Buckaroo, Mollie, PayU money, PayULatam)
2. When the signature check fails, we raise a ValidationError which
counts as an HTTP 200 for some providers (it's not the case if they
expect a specific string). (Adyen, Paypal, Sips, Stripe)
3. If a ValidationError is raised when processing the feedback data, it
is allowed to bubble up to the provider. (Alipay, Ogone)
The issues are respectively addressed as follows:
1. If the acquirer implements payments with redirection, make sure that
if either makes a request to the provider to validate the data or
that it verifies the signature. Verifying the origin of the request
is not enough: the payload must be checked too.
2. Instead of raising ValidationError's, raise an HTTP 403 FORBIDDEN
error if the signature check fails.
3. Wrap the call to `_handle_feedback_data` of the webhook method inside
a try/except clause to catch any ValidationError, log a warning, and
acknowledge the notification to avoid having the provider disable the
webhook because of too many failures.
