[IMP] sale, l10n_fr_account, l10n_be: improve down payment
Move the property_account_downpayment_categ_id field to the company (instead of product.category).
The reason for this is we want to simplify the downpayment accounts. Having one account per product category could lead to downpayment invoices with a lot of lines, as we split lines based on account. Now that we have only 1 account per company, we only split lines based on taxes.
