Broken (can't run odoo at all):
- In Odoo 17.0, the `pre_init_hook` takes an env, not a cursor, update
`_check_citext`.
- Odoo 17.0 rejects `@attrs` and doesn't say where they are or how to
update them, fun, hunt down `attrs={'invisible': ...` and try to fix
them.
- Odoo 17.0 warns on non-multi creates, update them, most were very
reasonable, one very wasn't.
Test failures:
- Odoo 17.0 deprecates `name_get` and doesn't use it as a *source*
anymore, replace overrides by overrides to `_compute_display_name`.
- Multiple tracking changes:
- `_track_set_author` takes a `Partner` not an id.
- `_message_compute_author` still requires overriding in order to
handle record creation, which in standard doesn't support author
overriding.
- `mail.tracking.value.field_type` has been removed, the field type
now needs to be retrieved from the `field_id`.
- Some tracking ordering have changed and require adjusting a few
tests.
Also added a few flushes before SQL queries which are not (obviously
at least) at the start of a cron or controller, no test failure
observed but better safe than sorry (probably).
odoo/odoo@1341d52 added native support for tracking / overriding
tracking message so we don't need `change-message `anymore. The calls
had to be modified a bit as `_track_set_log_message` has to be invoked
on the records for which the tracking message is being set / updated.
Sadly the same for authors was only added in 16.3 *and* it's
unsuitable for our needs as we want to set the author without knowing
the scope of affected records (at least in the controller).
That way hopefully in 17.0 we can remove the `_message_compute_author`
override and things should work out. And maybe for 19.0 we can get the
ability to set a per-model (or even global) fallback author into
standard.
