PayPal: Deprecated field names for Express Checkout?

Issue Summary

Just came across this API documentation at PayPal about Express Checkout:

https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=develo...

This was updated a few days ago, and lists several field names (NOTIFYURL, ITEMAMT, PAYMENTACTION, etc) as being deprecated. It's not clear to me if these have technically been deprecated for a while—I'm not sure if that last documentation update was to update these.

In either case, these field names should be updated in the PayPal module.

There is no notification that these will ever be removed, so marking this as minor until that happens; there's plenty more important things to work on. All uses of the PayPal API probably should be reviewed at the same time, there's no doubt been many more additions that we haven't kept up with.
