[PERF] mail: Disable prefetching of unneeded fields

Coresaas-18.4mailMEDIUM

Email processing now avoids loading large unnecessary message data when handling mail records. This reduces memory pressure and lowers the risk of out-of-memory failures, especially when processing large email volumes.

Modifications are made around read, filtered, list comprehension.

The read function usually does not prefetech fields other than stated. But in this case, since the fields are related fields from another model, The fields of the other model are prefeteched. This includes the body which can be very big in size and cause an out of memory error.

Filtered does not need other fields and keeps them unnecessarily in cache.

List comprehension where it has a reference to specific field inside the model also triggers the prefetecher.

Benchmark:
|        |Number of queries| SQL time| Python time||
|-------|----------------------------|----------------|---------------|-|
|with prefetch| 82| 1.887 | 7.898| Out of memory|
|Without prefetch| 120| 0.385 | 5.973| |

The benchmark with the prefetch was done locally with increasing the memory limit.

[IMP] l10n_be_reports: Replace TXT export with XML for Annual Accounts

PR #92570

Enterprisesaas-18.4l10n_be_reportsMEDIUM

Belgian Annual Accounts exports from the General Ledger now generate an XML file instead of a fixed-format TXT file. This better matches official formatting needs and supports richer details such as account codes, debit and credit values, multilingual descriptions, and metadata for downstream processing.

Original PR description

The previous Annual Accounts export in the General Ledger generated a TXT file with a fixed column order, which did not meet the structural or formatting requirements for downstream usage.

This commit replaces the TXT export with an XML export conforming to the official format, including fields such as account code, debit, credit, multilingual descriptions, and metadata.

Danish companies can now prepare and send VAT report data from Odoo to the government reporting services. The flow retrieves required filing dates, submits a draft VAT return, and provides access to receipt and payment information after approval on skat.dk.

The Danish government has set up a system enabling users of accounting software
 to send their tax reports to the government directly from the accounting software.

To do this, there are 3 different web services:
- VirksomhedKalenderHent: This web service returns the dates on which the legal entity must submit its VAT returns. These dates are required to submit VAT returns.
- ModtagMomsangivelseForeloebig: This web service submits a draft VAT return to skat.dk with all the fields to be filled in. The web service returns a deep link to skat.dk, where the legal entity can access and approve the submitted VAT declaration.
- MomsangivelseKvitteringHent: This web service provides a receipt for the VAT return, given that the legal entity has approved it. This service also includes
 information on how to pay any outstanding balance.

These three web services use SOAP and encryption to function. What we decided to do was to take the SOAP envelopes of the requests and create them by hand and send them to the government portals.
