This commit remove required alias on res.users model. It also removes the inheritance of mail.alias.mixin. The field alias_id is kept and allow people to use aliases on users if they want. However there is no default void alias created for each user anymore. Default from of mail.message does not use user alias anymore. Indeed this creates issues with aliases not being correctly configured and can be confusing compared to private channels. Using user aliases is therefore now done manually instead of being a default behavior.
