Respond "conditional supply"

The respond “conditional supply” action allows the supplier to communicate to the requester that it will supply the requested item with a condition applied.

In essence, this action combines the functions of the https://openlibraryenvironment.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PR/pages/813203484 and https://openlibraryenvironment.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PR/pages/901873684 actions. Please see the documentation for each of these actions for more detail.

Unlike the add condition action, which can be applied at any time before the item has shipped, respond “conditional supply” is only available for new requests. If the auto-responder is turned on, users will not see this option.
