source-stripe-native: some streams' incremental replications aren't happening

[Alex-Bair]

Summary

Some streams for source-stripe-native are not replicating incrementally despite data being created/updated in Stripe. For example:

• ApplicationFees: The incorrect event type is being checked. The connector is checking for application_fee.refunded events when it should be checking for both application_fee.created and application_fee.updated events.
• Refunds: No refund events are generated by Stripe. Despite the Stripe API documentation listing refund.created and refund.updated events, these events are not present on the /events endpoint when a refund is created/updated.

Other streams may have these issues too, but they haven't popped up yet or are only checking for a subset of the appropriate events (i.e. only checking for .updated and not .created). It wouldn't be a bad idea to audit all events we're checking & confirm they are actually being created in Stripe. We should also make sure we're checking for all appropriate events for each stream.

A possible solution includes the following:

• Checking for different event types between parent streams vs. child streams. Right now, they always check the same event type.
• Checking for multiple event types using an array of types as query params (specified like types[0], types[1], etc.) instead of checking for only a single type with the type param.
• Switching any streams that don't actually have create/update events over to the existing "no event" resource type.
