Mathieu Benoit d2c5d92d11 [FIX] migration: the COW tools speak the system language
They run as subprocesses and had no i18n, so a French migration alternated
languages from one line to the next. The database upgrade itself had the
same gap.

The driver read English sentences out of their output to decide whether to
ask its question. Translating them would have made it mute -- no error, no
trace. The link is now the exit code, which no language touches: 0
nothing, 1 copies concerned, 2 the tool failed.

87 strings, five tools. A test rejects any displayed sentence that skips
t(), and proves itself on an untranslated one.

--- FR ---

Ils tournent en sous-processus et n'avaient aucun i18n : une migration en
français alternait les deux langues d'une ligne à l'autre. La mise à
niveau de la base elle-même souffrait du même manque.

Le pilote lisait des phrases anglaises dans leur sortie pour décider de
poser sa question. Les traduire l'aurait rendu muet — sans erreur, sans
trace. Le lien est désormais le code de sortie, qu'aucune langue ne
touche : 0 rien, 1 copies concernées, 2 l'outil a échoué.

87 chaînes, cinq outils. Un test refuse toute phrase affichée qui saute
t(), et fait sa preuve sur une chaîne non traduite.

Migration

Run this script when doing database migration. Example :

source ./.venv.odoo15.0_python3.8.20/bin/activate && cat ./script/odoo/migration/fix_migration_odoo140_to_odoo150.py | ./odoo15.0/odoo/odoo-bin shell -d DATABASE

Check uninstall_module_list_odoo140_to_odoo150.txt

Module lists to uninstall

Before a version bump, the migration uninstalls the modules listed in uninstall_module_list_odoo<from>_to_odoo<to>.txt. Two locations are read, the private one first, and the results are merged (duplicates dropped):

  1. private/odoo/migration/<database>/uninstall_module_list_odooXX0_to_odooYY0.txt — specific to ONE database, not versioned. Which modules must be dropped depends on the data, so this is where nearly every entry belongs.
  2. script/odoo/migration/uninstall_module_list_odooXX0_to_odooYY0.txt — shared defaults, versioned, valid for every database.

Syntax: one module per line, with a justification after #. Commas and several names per line are accepted; blank lines and full-line comments are ignored. A module without a stated reason is flagged at runtime: removing a module is a decision someone must be able to review later.
