[FIX] iot_box_image: restore image auto version

PR #194803

Coresaas-18.1iot_box_image

The IoT Box image build process now automatically applies the correct version again. This fixes a regression from a previous update and helps ensure IoT Box images are consistently identified for deployment and support.

Original PR description

The forwardport PR #194085 accidentally removed the automatic IoT Box versionning added in the PR #193505.

This PR restores it as it was in #193505.

[FIX] mail,im_livechat: chat window focus followup

PR #192522

Coresaas-18.1mailim_livechat

Chat windows now ask for focus only when needed instead of assuming they should take it by default. This reduces unexpected focus behavior for users and improves the reliability of live chat and messaging interactions, with a test added to help prevent regressions.

Original PR description

This PR changes the default value of the chat window focus. It's safer to ask for
the focus every time you need it.
It also adds a test to the feature.

[FIX] point_of_sale: correctly sort products alphabetically

PR #193096

Coresaas-18.1point_of_sale

Point of Sale product lists now sort items by their product names instead of internal reference codes. This makes products easier for staff to find during sales and avoids confusing ordering when internal codes are used.

Original PR description

Before this commit, products were sorted based on display_name, which included the internal reference, resulting in products being sorted by their internal references. This fix ensures that products are sorted alphabetically by their names.

[FIX] partner_comission: don't change UoM

PR #77261

Enterprisesaas-18.1partner_commission

This fix prevents the Partner Commission upgrade from changing a product's unit of measure when businesses have already customized it. It avoids upgrade failures for products already used in posted accounting entries and preserves customer configuration.

Original PR description

During upgrades to 18.1, if the UoM of the product had been changed, it leads to
```
This product is already being used in posted Journal Entries.
If you want to change its Unit of Measure, please archive this product and create a new one.
```
No reason to revert user change during upgrade.
