Odoo's Mergebot

PURPOSE
Improve mail_client_extension: be more modular, clean code organization,
support contact and multi-records, ease helpdesk integration.
SPECIFICATIONS: CODE CLEANING
mail_client_extension: split authentication and main controller code. Purpose
is to ease code understanding and split authentication code from business
related code.
crm_*: split crm code from mail_client_extension. Purpose is to allow the
user to use the mail_client_extension without needing to install CRM, this
will also allow the usage of the mail connector in other modules without
the need for CRM.
Rename {crm/mail}_client_extension to {crm/mail}_plugin: easier to read
and to work with.
SPECIFICATIONS: CONTACTS / MULTI RECORDS SUPPORT
This merge adds support for searching multiple contacts using a text query in
the email plugin rather than forcing the user to stick with a single matching
contact. This is done to give more functionality to the user and to enable him
to perform actions (log emails, create opportunities...) on other contacts
and not only on the matched contact. Also add the ability to log emails into
contacts.
Legacy and deprecated routes/methods/actions have not been deleted in order to
ensure that older versions of the plugin would still work after this update,
these are now marked with a comment.
See sub commits for more details about this PR's content and technical
challenges.
