validateFrenchAddressfunction
Checks an address in France against La Poste's postcode shape and the tables: the postcode is five digits, its number names a department, a collectivity or Monaco, and La Poste's base officielle lists it. Says when a postcode is Monaco's or an overseas collectivity's, which have country codes of their own, and warns when the postcode or the commune is missing.
