Description

When dealing with metered billing, either with recieving usage records or reporting usage to a metered subscription, stripe tells me this:

Error:
Cannot create a usage record for SUBSCRIPTION_ITEM because it is not on the legacy metered billing system. Call /v1/billing/meter_events instead.

Here are the docs:
https://docs.stripe.com/api/billing/meter-event/create

This code worked for me then:

$stripe = new StripeClient(config('services.stripe.secret'));
$stripe->billing->meterEvents->create([
'event_name' => 'EVENT_NAMEr',
'payload' => [
'value' => '1',
'stripe_customer_id' => $company_stripe_id,
],
'identifier' => 'identifier_123',
]);

Steps To Reproduce

$company->subscription('default')->reportUsageFor('PRICE_ID', 1);

There was an attempt here but was reverted because of failing tests. We'd still very much appreciate PR's for this with passing tests. #1698
