deprecated

Deprecated because not all discount types and details are captured.

The `discount` object has been replaced by the [`discount_allocation`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/liquid/objects/discount_allocation) and [`discount_application`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/liquid/objects/discount_application) objects.
