Implement Normalization of Award Reference Lengths for Consistency in Workbook Validation

[sambodeme]

Description:

Modify the check_award_ref_declaration function to ensure that discrepancies in award reference lengths between the Federal Awards workbook and the Federal Awards Audit Findings workbook are normalized before validation. This involves:

1. Creating a helper function to handle cases where award references have differing lengths by padding shorter references with leading zeros.
2. Ensuring that if the declared award reference length is greater or less than the reported award reference length, references are adjusted to match in both workbooks.
3. Incorporating the normalization step before checking for mismatches between reported and declared award references.

This will ensure consistent validation across different versions of the workbooks and prevent errors due to differing reference lengths.
