Add an API endpoint for making fee pre-payments #298

I would like to start making regular pre-payments of my processing fees. It would help immensely if there were an API endpoint where I couldn't initiate debits from my marketplace account for fee pre-payment.

If internally Balanced used a specialised account called the fee_account on a marketplace in order to hold these funds.

If we exposed this account then marketplaces could initiate an ACH debit from the bank account of their choice with on_behalf_of_uri=uri/of/fee_account and all this would magically work without any new endpoint.
