Track_visibility field parameter allows to track field changes in mail. Since
commit https://github.com/odoo/odoo/commit/c99de4551583e801ecc6669ac456c4f7e2eef1da only updated values are tracked. Previously to that commit it
was possible to have field values being tracked whenever any other change
occurred. This feature has been removed to simplify tracking and avoid having
unnecessary values in the tracking table. In this commit we rename the
track_visibility parameter to tracking. Old parameter value is still supported
in mail for backward compatibility.
Commit https://github.com/odoo/odoo/commit/ec35eca7c6b772139c8fa143b388ad1d936bc9ea added sequence on tracking so that display of tracking values
is coherent through various chatter messages. To ease tracking configuration
it is merged with the tracking (old track_visibility) parameter. It means
tracking parameter can either be True (default sequence of 100) or an integer
giving the sequence to apply on the tracking.
Purpose of those changes is to simplify tracking configuration with studio
in mind. That way changing one parameter allow to customize the tracking of
fields in chatter.
Sequence field on mail.tracking.value model is renamed to tracking_sequence to
have a coherent namespace for tracking information. Tracking information on
ir.model.fields is also updated accordingly. To simplify manipulation boolean
value for tracking is automatically transformed into a sequence of 100.

content_subtype was a parameter to message_post allowing to give plaintext
content instead of html content. It has been removed at 74d4b3902d. This
commit cleans some leftover bits referencing this now removed parameter.
Functional
==========
Sales teams become sales channels. Their dashboard cards now include a graph
displaying customizable data for managers (comparable to those in accounting).
By default, you now have the following sales channels (non-demo):
Direct Sales (with installation of crm or sale)
Sales Channel type: Sales
Works same as before, what's changed is:
- their cards display one big button directing to the start of their
workflow
- the links on the right-hand side have been reworked, and are only
displayed when there is at least one item requiring attention.
- 'More' tab remains unchanged.
Website (with installation of website_sale)
Sales Channel type: Website
Differences lies in the links displayed in the dashboard card:
- it displays abandoned carts, awaiting payments and payments to capture
Default Channel linked to all sales made from the eCommerce.
Point of Sale (with installation of sale and point_of_sale
-> auto-installs pos_sale)
Sales Channel type: Point of Sale
Linked to pos.configs and their pos.sessions and pos.orders.
- only links to their linked pos.config dashboard and open sessions
- can't use opportunities, lead or invoicing and can only display
pos.order data in the graph.
Default Channel linked to the default pos.config.

- Rename sales teams to sales channels, rename and add default and demo sales
channels
- Change dashboard links depending on the channel type and add a related
computed fields on crm.team
- Rename strings and improve channel form view.
- Leads are now checked by default once activated for 'sales' type channels
- Disable checking "leads" without using "opportunities".
- Hide invoicing and invoicing target depending on channel type.
- Move currency_id to sales_team
Documentation to help developers use the following classes:
- utm.mixin
- rating.mixin
- website.published.mixin
- website.seo.metadata
- mail.thread
- mail.alias.mixin
After careful consideration, the ir.needaction.mixin was
not included in this doc page since it is no longer displayed
anywhere and will be dropped quite soon.
