Currently only an email action based on template exists in server actions when
having mail app installed. It basically sends an email based on a mail template.
However being able to post a message on record is also useful. Instead of
sending emails it post on a document as a comment or as a note, like what
users can do using the chatter. Notification flow for those cases is the
classic from post: followers, specified partners, Inbox/Email, ...
Task-2613245 (Server actions mail update / cleaning)
Closes#45640
Part-of: odoo/odoo#75906
In this commit we cleanup server actions model in order to make it a bit
more inlined with current code state of the art.
* add no_create / no_open on technical fields (m2o towards fields notably)
as creating or updating fields on the fly is not the purpose of base
automation module;
* rewrite onchange into compute or constraint methods;
* add compute methods to cleanup data when changing configuration (model or
trigger). Some fields have no usage except in some configuration better
reset their value. Notably fields linked to the chosen model should be
reset;
* add constraints for invalid configuration, notably for models coherency
with mail features;
Task-2613245 (Server actions mail update / cleaning)
Part-of: odoo/odoo#75906
This commit aims at removing unuseful help message to:
1/ reduce translators work, to focus on more useful translations
2/ not sending unuseful information in load_views
3/ reduce help message to useful messages, so that we can mark
fields having a tooltip in the future UI.
4/ some cleanup of existing messages too
The main use cases:
- REMOVED: help redundant with the field name, providing no extra info
- MOVED TO COMMENT: technical help messages, that should not be in UX

As mail grows and will continue to grow, ordering imports and having right
files naming as well as right content in them is important to understand
module organization and content.
Containing
* reorder init file to give an overview of models;
* move ResGroups override in its own file, outside of res_users file;
* split file containing MailActivity model and MailActivityMixin so that
mixin is contained in its own file, easing followup;
* split Activity and ActivityType models into two files;
No functional change comes with this commit. This is only code move.
