convertBidThreadToPriceRequest

Requires permission biddesk:cost_sheet:edit.

Drafts a price request to vendors from a bid thread; nothing is sent, and the thread then lists it. On a cost line thread the line's item and quantity fill what is not given; on any other thread the item, its name and the quantity must be given, else PRICE_REQUEST_ITEM_REQUIRED. Only the bid's members can convert its threads. Requires Bid Desk. Requires permission to edit cost sheets.
