[IMP] l10n_fr_pdp: recompute French EAS and identifier

Core18.0l10n_fr_pdpMedium

French partner records without the expected electronic invoicing address scheme are now checked against the official directory data available through IAP. When matching entries are found, the system selects the most appropriate identifier automatically, improving accuracy for French e-invoicing preparation.

Original PR description

for existing french partners that dont have their EAS set to the FRCTC, a check will be made to see if they are on the annuaire using the IAP annuaire lines, if one line exists, the identifier is set to that, if more than one line exists, we set the identifier to one of the lines in this priority: siren_siret -> siren -> shortest identifier (most general)

[PERF] base: cache barcode/QR PNG rendering with cache

PR #289135

Core18.0baseMedium

Large reports that reuse the same barcode or QR code now avoid redrawing the same image over and over during generation. This can dramatically reduce report creation time for documents with many repeated codes, improving productivity without changing report content.

### Description of the issue/feature this PR addresses:

Reports with hundreds of pages and repeated barcodes or QR codes (same document number, same lot code on every page) re-run reportlab's createBarcodeDrawing and PNG encoding on every occurrence, even when type, value and options are identical.

### Current behavior before PR:

Every call to ir.actions.report.barcode() re-renders the barcode/QR from scratch, regardless of whether an identical (type, value, options) combination was already rendered earlier in the same report. On a 900-page report with 4 barcodes/page, this dominates generation time.

Benchmark, 900 pages x 4 barcodes/page, 4 distinct combos, 3600 calls: 19.131s.

### Desired behavior after PR is merged:

The pure rendering step (createBarcodeDrawing + mask + PNG encoding) is extracted to a module-level function keyed on (barcode_type, value, options, mask) and wrapped with functools.lru_cache. Repeated barcodes reuse the cached PNG instead of re-rendering.

Same benchmark after the fix: 0.020s (946.7x speedup, cache_info hits=3596 misses=4).
