Refunded state
Hi guys.
This is not actually a bug but maybe later can be a feature request. So the main question is that how can I detect on saved invoices and payments the refunded state? Is there a listener for this event in this package?
The Charge Object in the Payment Intent Object already has a refunded boolean flag - only it is not updated on a refund. We need to revoke the user's authorisation if the payment has been refunded - what are the options?
Bumping this. Is there a way to tell if a payment in the Payments sub-collection was refunded? Adding these events to the webhook doesn't appear to be enough - none of the Firebase Cloud Functions handle updating the corresponding payment document to reflect the refunded change.
I assume the change would be made in the insertPaymentRecord function, belonging to the handleWebhookEvents webhook handler function. Similar to how changes to existing subscriptions update the document, I would think that refund events on Stripe could be used to update the existing payment document.

I'd be happy to start on adding a Pull Request with the changes, since I'd definitely use a feature of this nature, but I'm not sure if that's a Stripe anti-pattern or goes against the intended usage. I'd be interested in hearing what folks at Invertase think about that matter. Dare I tag someone - @dackers86 ? If that sounds like something reasonable to add, I'd be happy to do some work on it, but don't wanna go down a rabbit hole if that's just not a good route. To be clear, my ultimate goal is to pick up on refunds to single-payment product purchases. Is this silly?
This sounds very useful feature. Perhaps we could update the Firestore payment document in Firestore based by adding the necessary web-hook event to the following:

Api reference: https://stripe.com/docs/api/charges/object#charge_object-refunded.
A PR may also provide additional context from the community on how best to use this property in Firestore.
Sounds good, thanks for the reply, I'll get cooking on this in the near future here. Cheers 👍
