Currently, only stable releases see their translations updated. This has
resulted in master accumulating outdated stuff for years, which can be
confusing for users testing master on runbot.
This one-shot commit resynchronizes master translations based on the
content from 16.0 and removes empty PO files (i.e. no longer containing
translations).

We want to invigorate a Tax Name Taxonomy so that tax names are as codified as possible. This allow for a better display on Invoice Description, and allowed us to implement a smart name_search.
In this PR, we change the taxes name so that it's more clear for the users

Taxes have a `description` field that has been hijacked to
represent tax label on invoices. We want the description field
to be used for its original purpose, thus created a dedicated field
`invoice_label` in which we transferred `description` content.
We also make description translatable.
This is part of the Tax Taxonomy 2 rework.

Rewrite the whole chart template mechanism, removing the templates
stored in the database. The new format will mainly use CSV.
Speed up install time
---------------------
* About half of the time of installing a localization for the first time is
taken by creating the template records. This new in code format gets
completely rid of this.
* Creating the template records could often not be done in batch because
of parent/children relations.
* The instanciation of the accounts on the company has been entirely
reworked too, by
- optimizing the order of creation of records to avoid UPDATE queries
- using precomputed fields to avoid UPDATE queries
- updating the translation in batch
- deactivating logging in the chatter
- avoiding access rights checks by checking the rights at the start
Overall, when installing a chart template for the first time, it is 4
times faster because half of the time spent on saving the template in
the database is not done at all anymore, and the instanciation on the
company is more than twice as fast.
Reduce technical debt
---------------------
There is no need to synchronize the templates with the real records
anymore. No need to use hooks to copy the data from one to the other.
It is easier to change a template in a stable version, which can often
be necessary due to legal reasons (i.e. a change of tax rates, reporting
tags,...)
Two modules have been removed:
* `l10n_generic_coa`: since there is nothing left datawise in this
module, it can be integrated in `account` for free. It is just code
and CSV.
* `l10n_multilang`: the fields that this module modified to be
translatable are now always translatable:
- there was an issue when updating modules that deleted all the
translations because the fields were not translatable at some point
during the loading of the registry, then they because translatable
again but lost all translations because of the column type change.
- most devs are not able to understand all the languages needed for
all the localization available. Therefore, english has been added in
the sources in most localization to understand better issues while
debugging.
- no need to call post init hooks anymore, doing the sync with the
templates.
- more: see "Translations" section
Because most of the data is now in CSV, it is also easier for product
owners to edit, audit, modify files themselves, removing one layer
during trivial development processes when only data should be changed.
More flexibility for declaration
--------------------------------
The data declaration can now be done easily in python or CSV.
A nice feature is that you can declare everything at once, even for some
more complex chart of accounts:
* if you have to set default taxes on accounts, would need to
- declare the accounts because accounts are required on the taxes
- declare the taxes
- declare the taxes to put on the accounts
This would lead to scatter information in multiple files. Now,
everything can be declared in the same place and the loading of the
chart of accounts will do the 3 steps automatically.
* if you have a relation of child/parent, you would first need to
declare the parents then the children, and the loading would not be
efficient because done one by one. Now, everything is done in batch
automatically without having to think about it.
It is also easier to update fields on records where there was no field
for that on the templates, like
* setting a restriction for journals on accounts
* setting specific values on the company
* modifying journals and linking them easily by using the xml_id instead
of having to compute it manually
Translations
------------
Some countries have multiple languages (i.e. Belgium uses officially
French, Dutch and German, and the CoA also has an official English
version) and we must support the languages in all these countries.
All these translations are known, and hard coded without using out
translation platform (Transifex). We also like to have the English
version (even if an official one doesn't exist) so that support can be
done more easily in databases using chart templates in other languages
(especially using a non roman alphabet).
Because the translations were not on Transifex for these records, it was
really hard to maintain: the translation templates (`.pot` files) were
not easy to extract as the automatic export would give values mixing
both the CoA and the menuitmes, the fields' strings,... But we don't
want to translate the CoA as we already know the value.
Managing the translations in the `.po` files was also annoying:
- it is easy to forget that the translations need an update too
- it requires a special editor, special terminal commands that everyone
is not familiar with
- it is easy to make mistakes in the source string
The new format is the following: `field@en_US` where `field` is the
translatable field (usually `name`) and `en_US` is the locale code.
This allows to have the whole declaration on one line, everything in one
file. It also makes the process easier when debugging: instead of
searching for the translation in the `.po` files, it directly appears
next to the configuration of the account/tax/... .
Update of the code
------------------
The code can be updated using this script
https://github.com/william-andre/transform_coa
Forward ports can be managed too by stashing/resetting/checkout the new
modules or the changes in the modules updated in the same PR.

There is a code pattern in l10n modules
to create a post init hook method `load_translations` in `__init__.py`
and to add it in the `post_init_hook` of the module manifest.
For the modules part of this revision,
the method `load_translations` was created as expected,
but then was missing in the `post_init_hook` key of the manifest,
therefore leading to the fact this `load_translations`
method was never called for these modules,
despite their `spoken_languages` were correctly
set in their charf of account template.

This is mostly a cleaning/refactoring change.
The current API for init hooks (pre, post, uninstall) is to pass
`cr, registry`.
But the first thing which was done by most
post init and uninstall hooks was to create an env using
the cr passed
e.g.
`env = api.Environment(cr, SUPERUSER_ID, {})`
and the `registry` argument was unused in all these hooks,
completely.
By changing the API of hooks to pass `env` instead
of `cr, registry`, we gain in average two lines in every
hooks:
- the line creating the env `env = api.Environment(cr, SUPERUSER_ID, {})`
- the line importing `api` and `SUPERUSER_ID`
Therefore removing ~250 lines of repeated code lines accross odoo/odoo and
odoo/enterprise.
In addition to these lines removed,
it also ease the API of init hooks for Odoo developers,
who are used to that `env` and not so much how to create an `env`
from a cursor.

There is a lot of use case where reports are exclusively in the company
currency, or have columns only in this currency. In these case, showing
the currency symbol is redundant, takes space and makes the reading
slower.
With this change, we will avoid displaying the symbol in a variety of
use case where it is not needed.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a BG company
2. Install the BG Chart of Accounts
3. Install the BG language
4. Switch to the BG language
5. The CoA is not translated
This is due to a missing field in the CoA xml: `spoken_languages` which is now fixed.
Moreover, the language code of Slovenian has been fixed from `si` (which is the country code) to `sl`.

Ideally, we develop in English any localization (then translate to the domestic language, in this case Serbian) All the module has been translated in english and then a .po file has been create to translate back in Serbian
Added more info on the description of the module and activate storno by default.
