Optimize scrie_jc_2007: Replace long MERGE with BULK COLLECT cursor loop

- Replaced 1,886-line MERGE statement with cursor loop + BULK COLLECT to avoid Oracle XE internal bugs with very long MERGE statements
- Reduced code size from 1,925 to 1,861 lines (-64 lines, -3.3%)
- Benefits:
  * Single SELECT execution (data loaded into PGA memory via BULK COLLECT)
  * Zero temporary table writes
  * Minimal PL/SQL overhead (~30-50ms for <10k rows)
  * Uses c_source%ROWTYPE for automatic structure adaptation
  * Preserves original alias 'S' for consistency
  * Maintains exact logic: UPDATE → DELETE (if nStergere + all zeros) → INSERT
- Added backup file: scrie_jc_2007_original_merge_backup.sql
- Added reusable transformation script: merge_to_bulk_collect.py
