The old tree views don't really exist anymore, this odd pseudo-flag to
dispatch between "list" and "tree" tree views has no reason to remain.

Purpose
=======
Improve mailing subscription to be more compliant with the European GDPR law.
Keep a list of people who does not want to receive promotional emails
(or mass mailing in general) anymore.
Specifications
===========
This commit is regrouping some main changes on mass mailing.
- Added blacklist : Avoid sending mass mailing to blacklisted recipient
(blacklisted = email address that doens't want to receive mass mailing anymore)
Detailed implementation
===================
Mail :
- Add Blacklist mechanism in mail module (NOT in mass-mailing) :
as we can send mass-mail without the mass-mailing module
- Unicity in email -> To avoid error in import, override the create and return
the existing record if any, else, create the record normally.
- Blacklisting is done by email address and is cross model.
Will apply to model that inherit the blacklist.mixin.
- field 'is_blacklisted' -> computed : check if email is in blacklist
+ search method to be able to filter on is_blacklisted
- When a email address is blacklisted, it will never get mass mailings anymore.
Even if the email address is added to another mailing lists
- Avoid sending notification to blacklisted recipients when sending email
in mass mail mode. If the recipient is blacklisted, we should not even send a
notification in the recipient's chatter for an email that he won't even
receive.
- When a email address is blacklisted, it can still get 'normal' mailings.
- The blacklist shoud be accessible in
Mass Mailing / Configuration / Blacklist
and Settings / Technical / Email / Blacklist
-> Renaming Settings / Technical / White / Black List config menu item
into Channel Moderation to avoid confusion with Mass Mail Blacklist
- Add indexes to the blacklist table (on email) to make it fast for access for
the different use cases
- _primary_email : attribute that must be overriden to specify which field must
be used as email in the blacklist mechanism.
- Filtering the blacklisted recipient in mail composer :
done in mail._get mail value()
In case of real mass mailing, we need the statistics to be computed in order
to know how many recipients were ignored in the mail.
So we cannot avoid sending mail but instead flag the mail as canceled.
Task ID 33224
Purpose of this commit is to allow moderation on incoming messages in
discussion channels. On some channels on which moderation is required
messages should be in a pending moderation stage. Moderators can accept
or refuse messages as well as always allow or ban messages coming from
a given set of emails.
Channels now have an option to be moderated. Moderators can be added on
channels. They have access to a specific UI in Discuss to see and take
action on messages waiting for moderation.
Concerning mail.thread message that are pending moderation are not notified.
It means nobody receives a notification about them. Moderation process calls
the notification once the message is validated.
Various features included in this commit :
* a model is added to store the decision about emails, allow or ban;
* access rights are updated so that only moderators can modify moderation
fields on message;
* specific bus notifications are send to moderated people as well as to
moderators on incoming emails as well as when a decision is taken;
* options are added on channels to send explanations to moderated emails;
* options are added on channels to write and send guidelines explaining
why and how moderation is performed;
* a reminder is send daily to moderators with remaining messages to moderate;
* discuss UI is adapted and a new channel is added below Inbox and Starred
giving access to moderation tools;
* chanenl UI is adapted allowing to moderate directly inside channels;
