Purpose
=======
The goal is to be able to have a hierarchy view to see the organisation of a company, that is, to have organisation chart for `hr.employee` model.
To do that, a new view will be introduced in `web_hierarchy` module, called `Hierarchy` view and it will first be used in `hr_org_chart` module for `hr.employee`, `hr.employee.public` and `hr.department` models.
Implementation details
----------------------
- A new python method will be introduced in the models when `web_hierarchy` module is
installed. That method, called `hierarchy_read`, is created to fetch the data for the
hierarchy view when the view will be loaded.
- The definition of hierarchy view is inspired to the definition of the kanban,
that is, a template called `hierarchy-box` has to be defined in the arch to draw the card
displayed in the node of the hierarchy view.
- Some attributes can be defined on the `hierarchy` tag:
- `parent_field` (default='parent_id') contains the parent field name
to use to fetch the parent record and to be able to fetch the hierarchy.
- `child_field` (optional attribute) contains the child field name
to use to find the child records (it is in fact the one2many field).
If that field is defined then some queries can be avoided since we
directly fetch the children when a read/search_read is done.
- `icon` (default='fa-share-alt o_hierarchy_icon') icon displayed inside the
`Unfold` button (to show the child nodes) in hierarchy node.
- `draggable` (default=False) True to allow the user to drag and drop a
node (= record) into a row or another node to update its parent node.
