david ed2a9b865b [FIX] stock_available_mrp: normal BoM available to promise
Normal BoM products (those which are manufactured) are regular stored
products and their immediately_usable_qty will be summed with potential
stock. This was the expected behavior of the module and it was lost at
some point.

Phantom BoM products (kits) don't have real stock so their available to
promise quantity will be the same as the potential.

As an improvement, we've added the possibility to override the sum of
potential and available to promise. In some cases such addition doesn't
make sense as we don't know how long can take to manufacture those potential
units.

Known issues
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The manufacturing delays are not taken into account: this module assumes that
if you have components in stock goods, you can manufacture finished goods
quickly enough. This can be overriden at BoM level though.
As a consequence, and to avoid overestimating, **only the first level** of Bill
of Materials is considered.
However Sets (a.k.a "phantom" BoMs) are taken into account: if a component must
be replaced with a set, it's the stock of the set's product which will decide
the potential.
If a product has several variants, only the variant with the biggest potential
will be taken into account when reporting the production potential. For
example, even if you actually have enough components to make 10 iPads 16Go AND
42 iPads 32Go, we'll consider that you can promise only 42 iPads.
Removed features
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Previous versions of this module used to let programmers demand to get the
potential quantity in an arbitrary Unit of Measure using the `context`. This
feature was present in the standard computations too until v8.0, but it has
been dropped from the standard from v8.0 on.
For the sake of consistency the potential quantity is now always reported in
the product's main Unit of Measure too.
Roadmap
~~~~~~~
Possible improvements for future versions:
* Take manufacturing delays into account: we should not promise goods to
customers if they want them delivered earlier that we can make them
* Compute the quantity of finished product that can be made directly on each
Bill of Material: this would be useful for production managers, and may make
the computations faster by avoiding to compute the same BoM several times
when several variants share the same BoM.
* Add an option (probably as a sub-module) to consider all raw materials as
available if they can be bought from the suppliers in time for the
manufacturing.
