[FIX] website: use proper env in model methods

Using `request.env` should be reserved for code that lies outside of
model methods (typically: controllers). Model methods have to use the
appropriate `self.env`.

This particular case caused frequent Python-PostgreSQL undetected
deadlocks during installations of website-related modules in 12.0.
One way to reproduce it was to trigger the installation of both
`website` and `website_form` in a single transaction, with neither
pre-installed.

Installing Apps that depend on both would do the job, such as
`website_sale`, provided that GEOIP is available on the system.

In details:
During installation of `website`, new attachments creation would call
get_current_website (see 602807ac and
4f6ec1cd), using the wrong database
cursor: the one from the request instead of the one for the
installation, as provided by `ir.module.module._button_immediate_function`.
This would acquire database locks on `res.country` and `ir.model` in
the wrong transaction, later blocking alterations to `ir.model` in
the installation transaction, e.g. for website_form's
'website_form_access' column.

This combination of events was possible before 12.0, but more difficult
to reproduce as module installations used to happen with a super-user
account, ignoring ACL checks and therefore not locking `ir.model`.
