GBP accounts and FPS are live

Customers can now hold GBP virtual accounts and move GBP over Faster Payments Service (FPS):

• GBP accounts: request GBP in the accounts array when you create a customer, subject to your project's allowed currencies, and track the account with GET /accounts. GBP accounts move to ACTIVE right after the customer is APPROVED.

• FPS on-ramps: create an on-ramp with rail: "FPS" and sourceCurrency: "GBP". The response returns the sort code and account number to pay into under state.payment.identifier.

• FPS destinations: create UK bank account destinations with rail: "FPS" and currency: "GBP". The identifier is the 6-digit sortCode and the 8-digit accountNumber. bank and holder are required, but their addresses only need country. SEPA destinations follow the same rule.
