Features or functions removed from Odoo
This change removes a partially working behavior where links inside form page tabs could automatically open another tab. The feature was unreliable and had limited practical value, so removing it simplifies the web interface code with minimal user impact.
Original PR description
This commit removes a feature that doesn't make a lot of sense and that partially works. In form views, we tried to make clicks on anchors that target an element inside a notebook page to automatically open that page. However, as explained in [1], it never worked for anchors outside the notebook (thus targetting something inside it), which is probably the only relevant usecase. What worked though, was the case where the anchor is also in a notebook page. As this feature was only partially working, and the working part wasn't really useful, we decided to remove it completely, which simplifies a bit the code.
