Remove 'Arbitration' state from the Disputes resource

[tarunc]

It should be Lost instead.

Also status is suppose to just represent on of pending succeeded or failed so we should really rename this field to dispute_status or something

[tarunc]

Right now the status field of a dispute resource contains 4 states: Lost, Won, Pending, and Arbitration. The Arbitration state should not exist as these disputes are considered lost.

In my opinion, how it is right now makes sense, keeping the field named status because it is describing the status of the dispute resource but I can understand the reasoning behind changing the field name. Let me know if you end up renaming the status field to dispute_status.

@steveklabnik thoughts on the name of the field, we were at one point trying to be consistent with fields call status in rev 1.1 since in rev 1.0 there are different values that status can take on depending on which resource you are looking. So basically I am trying to avoid inconsistencies

[steveklabnik]

Yes, I like keeping the names consistent. :+1: for status.

Is there a difference between Arbitration and Lost, @cieplak ?

[cieplak]

Arbitration is a form of loss but is more of an implementation detail, so will update the interface to reflect this.
