This update enhances how Odoo identifies partners in Saudi Arabia. Previously, partner type was solely determined by VAT. Now, it also considers the Identification Scheme and Identification Number, leading to more accurate distinctions between companies and individuals, especially when VAT information is unavailable.

Before this commit:
- Partner identification relied only on the VAT field.

After this commit:
- Partner identification in Saudi Arabia also considers Identification Scheme and Identification Number.
- This improves detection of companies vs individuals when VAT is missing.

This update allows accountants to group invoice lines by tax, simplifying their workflow and reducing clutter in journal entries. The system intelligently manages PDF generation, preventing duplicate files when grouping and ungrouping tax lines. This improves efficiency and data clarity for financial reporting.

[IMP] account_edi_ubl_cii: (un)group lines by tax
    
Once an invoice is imported, a server action allows the user to group
lines by tax, and then if the same action is triggered again it will
ungroup all lines from the origin file
    
This feature is useful because accountants don't always need the
detail of the vendor bills, and also all the lines clutter up the
journal items

This update enhances the poll experience by displaying the poll's end time when you hover over the 'Remaining Time' text. This allows users to set reminders and proactively manage participation, ensuring timely responses and maximizing poll engagement. It's a small improvement that increases the effectiveness of polls.

This commit adds showing of datetime when the poll will end when mouse-hovering on the Remaining time text of the poll. This is useful to put a reminder for later just before the poll ends, let's say to see if involvement is fine or we need to push pressure for people to vote.

This update speeds up testing for the Stock Barcode module by optimizing the initial setup process. The previous setup, which created a company, was a significant bottleneck. Moving this creation to a setup class will reduce test execution times, improving developer efficiency.

TestBarcodeClientAction [setup is quite slow](https://runbot229.odoo.com/runbot/static/build/102958171-master/tests/profile/profile_2.html#localProfilePath=1), especially because it creates a company.

In addition in all classes extending this one, we spend at least 6 minutes on this line.
(when testing sale_timesheet -> !stock_barcode_mrp_subcontracting)

This commit proposes to move at least the company creation in a setupclass.

It would be great to move all the setup in the setupclass but the tests are failling when doing so and could be achieved by a member of the stock_barcode owner team.

Tests based on this setup should be a few minutes faster with this change.

This update enhances the accuracy of loan interest rates within the Enterprise module. Previously, interest rates were displayed with only two decimal places. Now, users can specify up to ten decimal places for greater precision, improving financial reporting and calculations.

Allowing more precision on the interest rate for loans. By default the display uses 2 decimals, but if a user decides to add more precision they can up to 10 decimals.
