Rationale
=========
Currently, mail channels have 2 modes
- They can be used like Discuss channel (chat, livechat, group)
- They can be used like a Mailing List (with the "email_send" field)
The mix of both feature in the same model causes some code complexity.
Several fields are not used in both cases (moderation related field)
and the future "Discord like" Discuss will even push the mail channel
further than the usage of the mailing list.
Because of all those reasons, we want to split the 2 mains features of
the mail channels into 2 different modules and models.
Purpose
=======
This commit remove the moderation feature of the mail channel
(email_send=True). This will be re-implemented in a separate module
in the next commit.
Do not be able to check messages in Discuss anymore because this
feature is only used to moderate the message and this feature will be
spitted in a new module "mail_group".

This commit adds a new mailbox in the Discuss app called 'History'.
Messages that have been marked as read are moved to 'History'.
Notifications are required to link history messages to users. So
notifications are now deleted after they are more tha 6 months old.
This means History mailbox keeps less than 6 months old messages.
Note that this feature only works when user notifications are handled
in Odoo. This can be set in the user preferences, under the
"Notification Management" section.
Task-ID 402597
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;
This commit is linked to task ID 29521. Closes#21921.
Purpose is to avoid mixing various data types in the same generic mail_data
file. We already have 2 crons and the upcoming moderation feature will add
some more. Let us put them in their file to ease the finding.
