New functionality added to Odoo
Odoo now includes Alipay as a payment acquirer, enabling merchants to accept payments through a major Chinese payment platform. This expands checkout options for businesses serving Chinese customers, with support for both standard checkout and China-based express checkout.

Enhancements to existing features
This update restores clearer formatting for partner selection fields that show addresses, so only the main name line is visually highlighted. It keeps long single-line values from being highlighted incorrectly when they wrap, improving readability without bringing back the previous display issue.
Original PR description
Rev. a3489be33 removed this feature to fix a bug (when the single line many2one, e.g. a product, is too long and displayed over several lines). However, we (fp) still want this for res_partner many2ones with show_adress. This rev. re-introduced the feature without re-introducing the bug.

When the shipping address on a sales order changes, the related delivery picking now gets an activity notification. This helps warehouse or delivery staff spot address changes before fulfillment and reduces the risk of shipping to the wrong place.

The activity view has been redesigned to make activity cards easier to customize and more useful across business apps. Users can now see all activity types, track progress by column, schedule activities from empty cells, view counters, and create related records directly from the activity view.
Original PR description
The activity view has been greatly improved to allow to customize it more easily. It works quite similarly to the kanban view, defining `<field>` tags at the top and using these fields in the `<template>` section. The template name used to define the activity cards is `activity-box`. Other features have also been added (see each commit for more information).
The search filter label for field views has been corrected so users can distinguish between field status and field type. This removes duplicate or confusing filter names, making it easier to find the right fields in Odoo settings.

This fix prevents an error when opening an employee's private address form after installing the HR and city address features. It ensures the partner form includes the needed parent address reference so users can edit private address details without disruption.
Original PR description
Steps to reproduce: - Install hr and base_address_city - Edit an employee - In private info, set a private address - Open private address form from the employee form Traceback because parent_id is undefined.
