The Sign app's automated tests were updated to use the newer Hoot testing framework instead of older QUnit-based helpers. This improves maintainability and helps ensure future Sign changes can be validated more reliably, with no direct change expected for end users.

Purpose of this PR is to convert remove QUnit tests which rely on `mail/test_utils` to hoot.

Recruitment users can now see and manage activities directly from the applicants list. This makes it easier to create or track activities for multiple applicants at once, improving follow-up efficiency.

It is not possible at the moment to create activity for more than one applicant. This commit adds the activities column to the list view of `hr.applicant` so that it can be possible.
