fix: Address critical webhook and optimistic locking issues

🔒 Critical Fixes:
- Implement proper optimistic locking with conflict detection and verification
- Only register webhook endpoints when providers are properly configured
- Move provider validation to initialization for early error detection
- Fix TypeScript query structure for payment conflict checking

🛡️ Security Improvements:
- Stripe webhooks only registered when webhookSecret is provided
- Mollie validation ensures API key is present at startup
- Prevent exposure of unconfigured webhook endpoints

🚀 Reliability Enhancements:
- Payment update conflicts are properly detected and logged
- Invoice updates only proceed when payment updates succeed
- Enhanced error handling with graceful degradation
- Return boolean success indicators for better error tracking

🐛 Bug Fixes:
- Fix PayloadCMS query structure for optimistic locking
- Proper webhook endpoint conditional registration
- Early validation prevents runtime configuration errors
