Basket validation

When creating or updating a standard basket there are several validations which have to be considered:

`totalValueGross`

must be > 0.00
must be equal to the amount provided in the authorize and charges calls
is calculated as follows:
- totalValueGross = basketItems.sum(( item.amountPerUnitGross - item.amountDiscountPerUnitGross)* item.quantity )

`amountDiscountPerUnitGross`

must be > 0.00 (when provided)
can be maximum as high as the item.amountPerUnitGross of the respective basket item

`currencyCode`

must be the same currency provided in authorize and charges calls
