New functionality added to Odoo
This change adds a new website portal area so users can access portal features directly from the public website interface. It also improves related menu behavior, footer display, and live chat session handling to make the experience smoother and more reliable.

Enhancements to existing features
Products now appear in ascending order based on their sequence number in product and online shop views. This makes product presentation more predictable and gives businesses better control over which items appear first to customers.

This update renames the default server configuration file from the old OpenERP name to the current Odoo name. It helps keep setup instructions and configuration behavior consistent with Odoo branding, with minimal impact on day-to-day use.
List view columns can now display website addresses as clickable links when configured for URLs. This makes it easier for users to open external pages directly from records, and it also handles links that do not include a protocol by using the current page protocol.
Original PR description
I see a use case for specifying a column of a list/tree view as widget="url" for some cases where that column contains a hyperlink to an external web page. This simple change modifies the content of a column (if there is content), so that the data is wrapped in a standard HTML anchor tag. If the user does not specify a protocol (HTTP/S, etc.) the // (inherit current protocol) prefix is appended.
Resolved issues and error corrections
Portal users can now read planner information without triggering an error in the web client. This prevents a broken experience when those users access areas that rely on planner data.

The web interface now includes the required icon styling for list drag handles, so users can clearly see where rows can be reordered. This fixes a visual issue in list views and makes row reordering easier to discover and use.

This update fixes display issues in the website editor so snippet grids remain usable on smaller screens. It also refreshes website snippet images with Odoo-branded, compressed assets, improving the editing experience and reducing image weight.
