Features or functions removed from Odoo
This change removes an option that let users add demo data to an existing production database. This matters because adding demo data after a system is in use can be risky, difficult to undo, and may cause operational issues; demo databases should instead be created through deployment setup.
Original PR description
This demo was created to allow users to create a demonstration database on a production environment. This is a bad idea as this is not reversible and can cause bugs. Installing demo data post usage is very fragile and dangerous. Instead, having the possibility to create a demo database should be done at the deployment level, to give a way to start a database with proper demo flag when installing base.
