Abdul-Muqadim-Arbisoft e5b497cbba fix: prevent None entrance_exam_minimum_score_pct from breaking CourseOverview sync (#37339)
* fix: prevent None entrance_exam_minimum_score_pct from breaking CourseOverview sync

When entrance exams are disabled in Studio, the field
`entrance_exam_minimum_score_pct` was set to `None`. This caused silent failures
when saving `CourseOverview` because the database column requires a float (NOT NULL).

This patch ensures that:
- CourseOverview sanitizes None values by falling back to
  `settings.ENTRANCE_EXAM_MIN_SCORE_PCT` (default=50).
- Studio avoids writing `None` and instead applies the configured default.

Impact:
- Prevents IntegrityErrors and silent failures when updating course settings.
- Restores proper syncing between modulestore (Mongo) and CourseOverview (MySQL).
- Fixes reported issues such as display name changes not persisting and course
  start dates not syncing.

Closes: https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/issues/37319#

* refactor: clean up entrance_exam_minimum_score_pct handling

- Consolidate logic to avoid repeated assignments
- Centralize None fallback and int/float normalization
- Improve readability with inline comment and consistency with Open edX style

* test: update entrance exam deletion test to expect default min score

- Adjusted `test_entrance_exam_created_updated_and_deleted_successfully` to check for
  `settings.ENTRANCE_EXAM_MIN_SCORE_PCT` instead of `None` after exam deletion
- Added handling for both int and float defaults (`/100` for integer case)

===

This directory contains code relating to the Open edX Content Management System ("CMS"). It allows learning content to be created, edited, versioned, and eventually published to the `Open edX Learning Mangement System <../lms>`_ ("LMS"). The main user-facing application that CMS powers is the `Open edX Studio <https://docs.openedx.org/en/latest/educators/concepts/open_edx_platform/what_is_studio.html>`_
