[IMP] hr_contract_salary: improve list view contract templates

Enterprisemasterhr_contract_salary

The contract template list now shows columns that are relevant to templates and hides columns that do not apply. This makes the HR contract salary setup screen easier to read and helps users find template information faster.

Original PR description

Some columns don't make sense for a contract template, so they shouldn't be shown. On the other hand, some columns would make sense to be shown for templates.

[IMP] whatsapp: disable markdown for whatsapp channels

PR #72456

Enterprisemasterwhatsapp
