The mail activity dropdown now closes automatically when a user clicks an activity action icon. This prevents the menu from staying open unnecessarily, making the interface feel cleaner and reducing confusion during routine activity handling.
Original PR description

This update lets administrators choose the order in which default grouping options are applied when a view opens. It makes grouped reports and lists appear in a more predictable, useful order for users.
Original PR description
Consider an action with a search view defined by the arch
<search>
<filter name="gb_foo" context="{'group_by':'foo'}"/>
<filter name="gb_bar" context="{'group_by':'bar'}"/>
</search>
If the action context is
{
search_defaults_gb_foo: true,
search_defaults_gb_bar: true,
}
the two groupbys will be activated at start but not necessarily in a suitable
order.
This commit allows to specify the order in which the default groupbys should be
activated by giving them a rank. For example
{
search_defaults_gb_foo: 2,
search_defaults_gb_bar: 1,
}
leads to group first by bar then by foo.
The rank number should be chosen between 1 and 99.

Accounting asset and deferred revenue features are now installed automatically, so users no longer need to enable separate settings for them. This simplifies accounting setup and reduces the chance of missing required configuration.
