Abstract operation polling. Poll GET /operations/ for any domain
mutation until it reaches COMPLETED or FAILED. Operation IDs are unique across
Registration, Renewal, and Transfer — clients that prefer typed polling can
use the concrete resource endpoints instead.

    Universal poll endpoint for all asynchronous domain mutations. Returns

    the current state of the operation. Non-terminal responses include a

    `Retry-After` header.

    Terminal statuses:

    * `COMPLETED` — operation succeeded; `result` contains the final
      outcome.

    * `FAILED` — operation terminated with an error; `error` contains
      detail.

    While status is non-terminal (`CONFIRMED`, `EXECUTING`), neither

    `result` nor `error` is present. Poll until a terminal status is
    reached.

    The poll URL is provided in the `Location` header of the initiating
    202

    response and in `links[rel=self]`. Clients must not construct this URL

    independently.
