payment.attempt.fail

End ONE payment attempt, leaving the intent untouched so a late approval still reconciles. attempt_failed is an AFFIRMATION by the app that this attempt will never settle positive — because it voided it, cancelled it, or asked the PSP for the final status. An app that cannot affirm that must not send it: the kernel never infers death from silence or from a timeout, and ending an attempt is what authorises a second real charge.
