The basic model did not transfer field options to special data methods
from fields. This was mostly not an issue, except for the widgets that
actually need them, such as the status bar and the domain editor.
This was only visible when opening views with different view types,
but this is a problem in general. We should have a better mechanism to
help widgets fetching data, but for now, this is the best we can do.
When evaluating a context, we need to use the server format for dates,
because the context will ultimately be sent do the server. Also, moment
objects are not known by pyeval, so they simply cause a crash (for
example, see bank statements form view, edit it, click on 'add an item')
With this commit, we make sure that the evaluation context is correct,
with respect to dates (we use the toJSON method, because that is the way
we get the server compatible date)
In general, with the new views, we execute immediately and recursively
all onchanges, even from a x2many in a form view. It allows for nice
interactivity, for example, recomputing immediately a total or a tax in
a sale order when an order line changed.
However, we are used to treat x2manys in a slightly weird way: for
example, if you add a line in a one2many, then click elsewhere, most of
the time, it is validated. But if the line is 'incomplete' (I mean, if
a required field is not set), the line will not be validated, but be
automatically discarded. If it was dirty, a confirm dialog will open.
So, to keep in line with that semantic, we have decided that onchange
will just not be done until the line is 'valid'. This will avoid
trouble when someone add a line, it triggers some onchange which changes
some values in the form, then click somewhere else, the line is
discarded, but the changed values persist. Most of the time, it
probably won't be a problem, because another onchange will be triggered,
but it is some useless work anyway.

Since the views refactoring, modifiers were not properly handled
anymore (readonly/required not recomputed, use of readonly/required
of "python field" instead of "view field", ...). This commit tries to
implement a system which allows to handle the modifiers (re)computation
the same way for all the basic views.
For this to work, many specialized renderers behaviors have been moved
to the basic renderer so that more mechanisms are shared (especially by
the form renderer and the list editable renderer). The list editable
renderer is hugely impacted by this commit.
Here is a list of key changes:
- The basic renderer now has a `_renderFieldWidget` function which is
used without modification by the form and the list renderers.
- Modifiers have to be registered thanks to the basic renderer
`_registerModifiersData` function (this is done automatically for
fields by the `_renderFieldWidget` function for example).
- All instantiated widgets are accessible, organized by record, and
ordered in a special basic renderer variable.
- The code which resets the widgets of the form view and the code
which updates the row of a list editable view is now shared in the
basic renderer and now also automatically updates the DOM according
to the reevaluated modifiers.
- The last point has an huge impact on list editable renderer: all the
widgets have to be instantiated when editing a row (even readonly and
invisible ones) as they can be switched to editable/visible during
edition (after a modifiers update).
- `replace_element` and `readonly` options of `AbstractField` are
useless: widgets are now always replacing the list editable cells
in edition and the `readonly` widget mechanism is replaced by the
notion of 'focusable' widgets.
(see `AbstractField.getFocusableElement`)
- The 'tab' navigation mechanism is impacted by the previous point,
some code sharing have been done in basic renderer for this too.
- `AbstractField` does not care anymore of the 'required' status, this
is the view responsability to check that a required field has a set
value on save.
- Some list editable bug fixing (e.g. it was possible to edit multiple
rows at the same time, it was not possible to navigate towards the
previous field, crash on o2m add an item click, ...)
- The mockserver now properly simulates server modifiers computation.
- ...
Note: list editable style may be worse than before this commit but a
CSS update is coming in a few days.
The 'mode' attribute can be used for x2many fields to force the
view mode. Before this rev., it was ignored and if a tree view
existed in the view description, it was selected by default.
This was mainly a problem in mobile as in this case, kanban views
are prefered, and the data_manager forces the mode to be kanban,
so the data was fetched according to the kanban view fields, but
later on the list view was instantiated instead of kanban by the
x2many field, so it crashed if both views didn't share the exact
same fields.
There were several issues with this widget, and the way the model
handles its requests (mainly the removal of values).
It crashed for instance on the product form view when the user
updated the routes field (field route_ids in tab inventory).
The client must receive the tzOffset to apply this on all hours.
To use the date picker we must change the date to apply the change
in the user's tzOffset, without this change the result is wrong.
For datetime widget we must change like it to avoid max stack error.
The server send the tzOffset, if it's undefined, by default the client
use the browser time offset.
Every test are change to use tzOffset.
A test is added in calendar to use the click by position for the
fullcalendar lib. This test create and drag and drop an event to check
timezone error and error when we use default value in the context.
Use formating date like 2026-04-04T08:00:00Z instead of 2026-04-04 08:00:00
is important for phantomjs, because it's crash without information if the
formating is not the standard format.
For the parsing, when the client receive a server date the date is utc
formating but when it's parsed from the client is in the user's timezone
