Release to completion

An Approved order can be released for fulfillment. The release action records a Shipped event per line, marks lines Fulfilled and leaves a processing receipt. Release also advances the order revision and moves it to Executed. Reconciliation then compares the order with its lines, fulfillment events, payment evidence and receipts and records the result separately.
