PURPOSE
Allow "free text" questions in the event questions asked to attendees, in
addition to the existing "selection" type.
e.g: "What are your allergies?"
SPECS
The implementation is heavily based on the modelisation we chose for the survey
module since the features become similar in terms of question types and inputs.
- Introduce a 'question_type' that is either 'simple_choice'
(= previous behavior) or 'text_box' that will contain the attendee text
answer.
- Rename the event.answer model to event.question.answer to make it more
obvious that it contains answer "suggestions" to a question of type
'simple_choice'.
- Introduce a 'event.user_input.line' that is an answer to a specific question
for a specific registration.
It works very similarly to 'survey.user_input.line' but it's not contained in
a 'user_input' model, it's directly linked to the registration using a
'user_input_line_ids' o2m field.
The frontend view has been adapted accordingly to display either a selection
input or a textarea based on the question type.
The frontend orm processing now takes in both answer types (id of suggested
answer or text input).
On the backend side, views have been adapted to display event questions and
attendee answers in a more convenient and logical manner.
