Unpost and repost the invoice.

The reason is that invoices exist "outside" the CoA, and there's no
way to call back from the CoA into the invoice code when a
split/transaction has changed.  So, in order to prevent a user from
screwing themselves over by changing invoice transactions I made it
impossible to change the invoice transaction.

You can still rename accounts and move accounts within the hierarchy.
You just can't split/combine accounts.

You can ask for this feature, but I don't intend to ever implement it
which means it will probably never happen.
