Deduct points from user

This API allows you to deduct points from a user. It is also referred to as the Manual Points Adjustment API. Additionally, you can raise a request to enable configuration ALLOW_NEGATIVE_BALANCE_ON_RETURN that support negative points. For example, if the negative points configuration is enabled and the currently available points for a customer are 0, you can still deduct 100 points from a customer.
