This update cleans and streamlines CRM-related automated tests while improving support for simulating incoming emails in test tools. It helps prepare the CRM module for upcoming internal changes with lower risk and better test coverage.
Website editors can now choose a smaller content width in addition to regular and full-width layouts. Blog pages use the same width setting, helping keep website and blog layouts visually consistent.
Original PR description
This commit adds the width of blog posts to the "Stretch" snippet option (previously, only full width aka container-fluid and regular container were allowed, hence the name), as such it has been renamed to width. Some code in website_blog has been adapted to reuse that class, such that the width of the small container can be adjusted and website and website blog will stay consistent with one another. task-2155513

Employee records now include last and next appraisal dates, making it easier for HR teams to track review timelines. The next appraisal date is set automatically when an employee is created and can be adjusted if the start date or onboarding timing requires correction.
Original PR description
The hr.employee module now has a last_appraisal_date and a next_appraisal_date field to better manage appraisals. The next_appraisal_date is generated upon the creation of an employee and is the creation date + the maximum duration between appraisals. It is editable so that it can be corrected when the employee form is created before the employee starts working in the company. Task-2154738
Studio now lets users turn on bulk editing for list views from the sidebar. This makes it easier for teams to update multiple records at once without needing technical configuration, and also includes a clearer label for showing hidden elements.
