reverseRefund

If a refund request (createRefund operation) fails with a 5xx HTTP status code, or no response was received within the timeout period, it must be reversed. This is to ensure the refund is not refelected on a customer's account. The refund reversal (this operation) must be repeated until a final HTTP status code is received (i.e. 202 or 400). The operation is idempotent and may be called repeatedly on the same payment resource without adverse effect.
