[IMP] point_of_sale: disable autofocus on pos config kanban for mobiles

PR #231459

Coresaas-18.3point_of_sale

The POS configuration screen no longer automatically focuses the search bar on phones and tablets. This avoids the on-screen keyboard opening by itself, making the view easier to use on touch devices.

Original PR description

Task: [#5016943](https://www.odoo.com/odoo/project/1737/tasks/5016943)

---

On tablets and phones, the search bar was autofocus when opening the POS config kanban view. This was causing the keyboard to open automatically, which was not a good user experience.

Now the search bar is not autofocus on touch devices for the POS config kanban view ('view_pos_config_kanban').

[IMP] account: backport record creation test helpers

PR #234006

Coresaas-18.3account

This change adds a set of reusable helper methods for accounting-related tests, such as creating invoices, sale orders, reversing invoices, and handling optional modules. It gives teams a common starting point for test setup and makes future accounting test work faster and more consistent.

Original PR description

This commit adds bunch of helper methods on AccountTestInvoicingCommon to make it easier to do generic accounting test actions, such as:

- creating invoice
- creating sale order
- reversing invoice
- skipping test if module isn't installed
- creating down payment invoice

... and many more.

We're aware that there are thousands of different helpers for creating invoice out there in different localizations. This commit serves as the first necessary step to create one standard that can be extended across all other test helpers.

This is a simplified version of the merged commit in master. We are not refactoring/rewriting any other test to use these new helpers. Our goal is just to make it available for everyone to start using this helper on their accounting-related tests.
