[IMP] core: make author field mandatory in manifests

External contributors (and namely Odoo PS) forget to set the author field in their manifest file. The result is that the module is wrongly registered with 'author': 'Odoo S.A.'.

This work makes the field mandatory, with a warning when not set. It also offers an upgrade-code script to mass-rewrite all the manifests in order to set the author.
