* Reorganize and reword some of the fields for the activity form type view
* The fields `force_next` from `mail.activity.type` and its related
field from `mail.activity` are removed.
Instead, a new field `chaining_type`, which is a `selection` will
improve the readability of the activity_type form. (It is made more
obvious that the user has to choose between 2 modes :
- 'Trigger Next Activity': used when the user wants to specify the type of the
next activity, which will be triggered once the current activity is done
- 'Suggest Next Activity': used when the user wants to recommend the
next activity for the user to schedule once the current activity is done
* To be consistent with this change :
- The field `default_next_type_id` is renamed `triggered_next_type_id`
- The field `next_type_ids` is renamed `suggested_next_type_ids`
* The field `default_description` is renamed `default_note` to better match the
`note` field from `mail.activity`
* About the specific case of activity_type.category = 'upload_file' :
An activity which has this type's category is automatically marked as done as soon as
the file is uploaded. This prevents the user from choosing a "next activity type".
As such, an activity_type with this category can only make use of the
chaining_type = "trigger", to be part of an automated process.
An activity_type with this chaining_type should have the
triggered_next_type_id set (usually required in the Form).
But, since it does not make sense to set suggested_next_type_ids in this case :
- chaining_type will stay hidden in the Form
- triggered_next_type_id will always be shown and is not marked as required in the Form
- if triggered_next_type_id is not set, chaining_type will be "suggest"
