This update replaces older internal command wording with clearer alternatives in approvals, enterprise mail, and website helpdesk live chat. It helps developers maintain these areas more easily without changing what business users see or do.
Original PR description
*: approvals, website_helpdesk_livechat This commit turns some `link`/`unlink`/`unlinkAll` to `replace`/`clear`. The commands `replace`/`clear` are easier to understand, and also clearly tells what’s the expected resulting value of this field. This change will help turning big and imperative code into smaller declarative code. Task-2834598 community: https://github.com/odoo/odoo/pull/89852
The EC Sales report and Belgian Partner VAT Listing now open with last month selected by default. This better matches the typical reporting period, helping users review and submit recent monthly tax information with fewer manual filter changes.

This update changes several Odoo apps to use a shared messaging communication method behind the scenes. It reduces transition work and risk ahead of upcoming Discuss improvements, with little direct impact on day-to-day users.
Original PR description
*: approvals, documents, documents_spreadsheet, l10n_de_pos_cert, l10n_de_pos_res_cert, pos_l10n_se. This PR prepares the ground for the one introducing the new env in discuss. The signature of the rpc function has changed a lot from the one in the old env. In order to ease the transition and reduce the noise, the discuss models now rely on the messaging's rpc function. task-2582313 community: https://github.com/odoo/odoo/pull/89858
