You ought to be a permanent resident after five years of residence, even if you changed from being a non-EEA family member to being an EU citizen in your own right.
You should be aware that as a French citizen you have no need for a residence card or for an EEA family permit. You will probably want to be certain when you apply for the EU settlement scheme that your status as a French citizen is clear.
