https://github.com/odoo/odoo/pull/68253 fixed a bug in check_vat that caused it not to run any check when called on a partner with no country.
However, doing this caused another issue because of an ORM limitation: when writing vat and country_id with a single write() on the res.company, two distinct write are triggered on the related res.partner, one for each field. Both those write trigger the check_vat constraint.
Depending on the order in which the keys of the dictionnary passed to res.company's write were ordered, country_id could or could not be written before vat. If vat was written first and did not start with a country code, the write() on res.partner failed the constraint, because country_id wasn't set yet. This was wrong, but used to pass as there was no country_id on the partner, before https://github.com/odoo/odoo/pull/68253 fixed that.
To circumvent the issue, we now allow entering any vat number without performing any check if it does not start with a country code and no country_id is set on the partner.
