Force jj/mm/aaaa on the ligne_comptable date field, regardless of browser locale

Browse Source 
The native <input type="date"> widget's displayed digit order follows
the browser's own locale, not Drupal's site language -- an English-
locale browser was showing 07/26/2024. Switches the date sub-element to
'text' with an explicit PHP date format so Drupal parses/displays it
consistently for everyone.

Verified end-to-end (not just cosmetically): submitted 05/03/2024 through
the real add form and confirmed it stored as 2024-03-05 (5 March), not
2024-05-03 -- genuinely parsed as day/month, not silently reinterpreted
as month/day.
