Customer may want to use their own SMTP for email marketing, and Odoo default SMTP for everything else. There is no good way to do this. Previously we suggested adding Odoo SMTP as an outgoing email server but we don't want to share credentials anymore.
R&D is working on a solution (e.g. showing the Odoo default email server in the list rather than keeping it as an "hidden feature") but for the time being, if you use an outgoing email server, you give up using the Odoo default SMTP.

Prior to this commit, the /legal.html page relied on RST substitutions
to insert the images directives of legal agreements within the table.
This caused Sphinx to omit the `image-reference` class on all `<a>`
elements surrounding an `<img>` element, which it normally adds when the
`target` option is specified on an `image` directive. As the theme
relies on that class to hide the "external link" icon added with commit
343decf1, the layout of the page was broken.
While replacing the substitutions with the plain `image` directive, the
grid table is converted to a list table to avoid the hassle of expanding
table cells to fit the directives. This will also help in maintaining
the content of the table when we will add new translations for the legal
agreements.

The `redirects.txt` file used to specify redirect rules for renamed or
moved documentation pages is starting to grow too big to be easily
maintainable. The main reason is that the number of redirect rules that
were thought to be required has been largely underestimated when
implementing the 'redirects' extension. At first, we believed that no
guidelines or structure were necessary because only a small amount of
redirect rules would be specified. This proved wrong and the file is now
becoming a mess, making it increasingly difficult to figure out where,
why, when, and if a redirect rule is specified in the file.
As the file is versioned, another issue emerges: conflicts occur every
time a commit is forward-ported to a later version if that commit adds a
redirect rule at the end of the file or at a line that was changed in
the later version. As redirect rules are frequently added, and since
blocks of redirect rules for new versions are added at the end of the
file, this tends to happen a lot.
This commit attempts to hit two birds with one stone by splitting the
`redirects.txt` file into multiple files, one per version. While doing
so, the existing redirect rules are ordered alphabetically and moved
into contextual blocks. Instructions and guidelines on how to create
redirect rules are also listed in the `redirects/MANUAL.md` file. By
sorting the redirect rules and adding them in different files, the
number of conflicts should decrease by a lot.

Since odoo/documentation#903, the guideline for the location of new
resource (images, downloadable files, RST includes...) files is to place
those inside the directory of the RST page that references them.
For example, if `doc1.rst` has a reference to `image.png` and to
`download.zip`, the file structure should look like this:
├── parent_doc/
│ └── doc1/
│ │ └── image.png
│ │ └── download.zip
│ └── doc1.rst
│ └── doc2.rst
├── parent_doc.rst
Before this commit, most of the resource files were still located inside
'media' directories holding all the resource files referenced by RST
pages located at the same level as these directories. In the example
above, a single 'media' directory would hold all the resource files
referenced by both `doc1.rst` and `doc2.rst`. Doing so prevented us from
figuring out easily which resource file was referenced by which RST page
and, thus, lead to unused resource files piling up in the repository. It
also made it more complicated to define codeowners regex rules because a
team could not simply be assigned to `/some_page.*` but needed to be
assigned to both `/some_page\.rst` and to the location of 'media'.
In order to help new content writers figure out the guideline when
taking examples from other RST pages, this commit retroactively applies
the guideline to existing resource files and 'media' directories. The
left-over resource files that are not referenced by any RST page are
removed.

Mexican companies very commonly issue invoices in USD, to be fulfiled
in MXN, at the official exchange rate defined by the Banco de Mexico
on the day of payment.
(Presumably, this is to insure against the volatility of the Mexican
peso.)
Odoo supports this workflow, but only if the payment is registered
directly on the invoice using the 'Register Payment' button.
If the payment is created separately, and then reconciled manually
with the invoice, a whole host of problems occur:
- the payment typically can't be reconciled fully with the invoice,
(even though that can usually be solved by manually creating
an exchange move)
- but more problematically, the amounts on the payment CFDI will
be wrong, and even manually creating an exchange move won't solve
that.
So, we absolutely need to warn users not to try to do that.
(We've been encountering lots of tickets lately in the tech-support
pipe because of users who tried this and then wonder why it doesn't
work.)
This is currently an issue in 14.0, 15.0 and master.

New taxes generated by the TaxCloud integration are by default created without an income or an expense account specified. By default, the journal items corresponding to these taxes therefore end up in the default income account, which is usually the 'Sales' account, when they should in fact go to the 'Tax Payable' account. Because these taxes are automatically generated on-the-fly, the user is usually not able to manually specify the Tax Payable account before the journal items are posted, leading to incorrect accounting entries which then need to be manually repaired through the use of miscellaneous operations.
To solve this issue, our video on TaxCloud integration (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JE-NeRNIWeU&t=616s) tells us to create a User-Defined Default for the account field of the tax.repartition.line model. This sets the default account with which new taxes are created. However, this information is missing from the documentation.
This PR brings the documentation up-to-date by explaining how to create this User-Defined Default that specifies the correct Tax Payable account.
