Gather information when approaching at the forecourt

This request will:

• Return a list of paymentMethods of the user which can be used at the gas station.
• Return up-to-date price information (price structure) at the gas station.
• Return a list of pumps available at the gas station together with the current status (free, inUse, readyToPay, outOfOrder). No pumps might be returned if the list of payment methods is empty.
• Create payment tokens for the paymentMethods of the user that are also supported at the gas station and pre-authorize the calculated maximum amount of money (background task). The approaching is a necessary first api call for connected fueling. Without a valid approaching the get pump and wait for status change calls may be answered with a 403 Forbidden status code. An approaching is valid for one fueling only and can’t be reused. If a long (not further disclosed time) has passed, the approaching is also invalidated. So if the client is receiving a 403 Forbidden on the above mentioned calls, a new approaching has to be issued, this can be done transparent to the user.
