This commit fixes two unrelated small issues in the JS transpiler regexps:
- handle special chars in file url (so, one can now use a "-" in a file url)
- issue with the @odoo-module detection: it required 2 spaces after the @odoo-module word, because of the way the regexp was constructed. It also required spaces at the start of the line. All those have been fixed.

Because of the way Odoo works at its core, we do not know before hand
which files will be loaded as an asset in the browser, because it
depends on the installed Odoo addons. This is why it is historically
difficult to integrate Odoo with standard JS tooling, and this is why
Odoo needs to use a custom javascript module system.
However, there is a way to use native JS modules (and gain all the
benefits from it: IDE autocompletion, ease of refactoring, intellisense,
...): we can write JS as native JS modules, but convert them at runtime
into Odoo custom modules. This is exactly the strategy applied by this
PR.
This has a lot of benefits, but there is a downside: we can no longer
serve statically JS files in debug=assets. This would be a dealbreaker,
if we did not have sourcemaps (implemented in the next commit).
This commit introduces the python code that will transpile native JS
modules into odoo JS modules.
