Module doesn't fully follow the Google Merchant standards

Problem/Motivation

In https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/6324448, there is a clear definition for "out_of_stock":

You’re not accepting orders for this product, or the product isn't available for purchase.

But this isn't the logic in our module. We define if something is orderable through our "orderable" field value, no matter the availability status. Meaning, if we set a product out_of_stock but orderable, we basically have Google's definition of a "Backorder" instead.

    Thanks for writing this down. Anyway it has no effect so far for the module, as we don't expose the values to Google Merchants yet, we're simply using their definitions for implementation. Exposing this to Google Merchants ins't even a planned feature yet.

    But if it will be one day, we should recognize this, yes! Therefore postponed and minor.
