[16.0][IMP] membership_variable_period: enable membership renewal

[flaenen]

A member's membership is now renewed when a new variable period membership product of the same category is purchased. The new period will begin the day after the end of the last period.

functional tests

Backend and logic

• [x] The "buy membership" button takes current and future membership lines into account when renewing variable memberships
• [x] If a past membership line has expired, renewal starts from today
• [x] Postponed renewal only applies to memberships from the same category
• [x] Postponed renewal only applies to membership states that grant effective membership ('paid', 'free' and 'invoiced')

POS UI [waiting for deployment before testing]

• [x] Postponed renewal applies when a membership is sold in the POS to an effective member
• [x] Compatibility with pos_membership_extension: test of both modules together

This is not a migration but a improvement / enhancement

What do you think about this @fcvalgar @Andrii9090 @chienandalu ?

Thanks @flaenen

I'm not sure I quite understand the context or use case for this changes. Can you elaborate it a little bit?

In our use case, a customer can become a member for one year by purchasing a membership product (usually via POS). Membership begins on the date of purchase and can be renewed before expiration by purchasing the product again. Renewal must begin the day after the end of the current period (not the day of purchase) to avoid overlapping periods, ensuring that the customer receives a full additional year of membership.
