[FIX] pos_avatax: calculate taxes for POS location

Enterprisesaas-19.4pos_avataxHIGH

Point of Sale Avatax tax calculations now use the company/shop location instead of requiring a customer address. This makes checkout tax behavior simpler and more accurate for typical in-store sales, especially for businesses with multiple shop locations.

Original PR description

The module behaves in an unexpected way:

- Tax is based on a customer's home address,
- To calculate tax a customer must be selected,
- Tax is calculated as if shipped from the warehouse selected on pos_warehouse_id

This could be useful in very obscure scenarios (B2B sales, traveling salesmen), but for those cases customers can already use our Avatax integration on sale orders.

We want this module to be useful for normal B2C POS sales. Taxes they charge are the same regardless of where the customer may live. This commit makes many changes:

- Stop requiring a customer to be selected,
- Always calculate local sales (from company location to company location) if the Avatax option is enabled on pos.config,
- Fix a bug where price_subtotal is not multiplied by quantity,
- Removes copy/pasted code from sale.order that serves no purpose,

This makes the module useful for companies that don't want to manually figure out what taxes to charge. This could be especially useful for companies with many shops in different locations.

A tour test was added to make sure the module keeps working. The test added before [1] was removed because it was redundant and less complete than the one included here.

This is deliberately not backported to Odoo 18 [2]. We keep the current behavior there.
