metatroncubeswdev b94ee06d3a fix: anonymous access to auth='user' pages crashed with 500 instead of redirecting to login
Reported: clicking "Post a Listing" on /classifieds while logged out threw
a raw 500 instead of prompting login.

Root cause is upstream, in this Odoo 19 build's own http.py: when
auth='user' raises SessionExpiredException for an anonymous visitor,
Request._serve_db's `finally: self.env = None` clears the request env
before the exception reaches the website error handler, which then tries
to build the login redirect via self.env['ir.http']._redirect(...) and
crashes with TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable. This
isn't specific to any one route - it reproduces on every auth='user' +
website=True page hit anonymously, including stock Odoo's own /my (traced
this back to the true cause rather than continuing to treat it as an
unrelated environment quirk, since it now has a real reported symptom).

Since core can't be patched here, worked around it at the route level
across all 9 affected pages (classifieds new/my/renew, membership
my/renew/card, benefits my, school attendance, portal my/school, event
checkin): switched from auth='user' to auth='public' and added an
explicit `if request.env.user._is_public(): return request.redirect(...)`
check at the top of each handler, before Odoo's own auth layer ever gets
a chance to raise. The jsonrpc AJAX endpoints (attendance save, checkin
scan/dashboard) were left on auth='user' since they return a JSON error
rather than attempting an HTML redirect, so they don't hit this path.

Verified against a live Odoo 19 + Postgres 16 container: reproduced the
original crash pre-fix, then confirmed all 9 previously-broken routes now
303-redirect to /web/login?redirect=<path> when hit anonymously, that the
login page carries the redirect target, that logged-in access is
unaffected (200), and that the separate "logged in but lacking a required
group" case (event check-in without Registration Desk) still degrades
gracefully to a clean 403 rather than a crash. Full regression: 48/48
tests pass across the six touched modules.
