INVOICE_STRIPE_FINALIZE_FAILED
503upstreamStripe would not finalize the invoice.
Cause
The itemise/finalize call failed. The draft's id is already persisted, so the operation is resumable.
How to fix it
Retry with backoff. The resume re-reads the linked draft and replays an already-finalized invoice rather than creating another.
