Subject: [PATCH] [IMP] base, mail, survey: improves slightly the UX
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Improves UX by adding placeholders to clarify the purpose of some inputs and
changing some field layout to ease the edition (with the use of multi-lined
editor).

Details:
Some placeholders have been added:
- description field of survey.question
- default_note field of mail.activity.type
- summary of mail_activity_type_view_form

Some field layout have been turned into multi-lined editor:
- default_note field of mail.activity.type
- write a message in mass mail mode (email_compose_message_wizard_form)

added border for field help of edit action (class oe-bordered-editor)

Task-2766291

closes odoo/odoo#85046
