fix: Address type safety and error handling concerns

🔧 Type Safety Improvements:
- Add missing ProviderData import to fix compilation errors
- Create toPayloadId utility for safe ID type conversion
- Replace all 'as any' casts with typed utility function
- Improve type safety while maintaining PayloadCMS compatibility

🛡️ Error Handling Enhancements:
- Add try-catch for version check in payment hooks
- Handle missing documents gracefully with fallback to version 1
- Add detailed logging for debugging race conditions
- Prevent hook failures from blocking payment operations

⚡ Version Logic Improvements:
- Distinguish between webhook updates and manual admin updates
- Only auto-increment version for manual updates, not webhook updates
- Check for webhook-specific fields to determine update source
- Reduce race condition risks with explicit update type detection

🔍 Code Quality:
- Centralized type casting in utility function
- Better error messages and logging context
- More explicit logic flow for version handling
- Improved maintainability and debugging capabilities
