Features or functions removed from Odoo
This removes outdated checks and references for old module setup file options that no longer worked in regular modules. The change reduces confusion for maintainers and keeps Odoo's module handling aligned with current supported behavior, with no expected impact for everyday users.
Original PR description
- forgot I already did a pass back in #215533 so just remove the mentions of `init_xml`, it was deprecated for 19.0 and was just a notice as it had not worked for more than a decade before then - also remove the check on `demo_xml` which hasn't worked or done anything useful since dfb9d317f269810c8e857a7bc898389242ac9fa7 either (same as all the other `_xml` keys as that uwittingly broke them all) Note that the `init_xml` = csv(noupdate) works in data modules (`base_import_module`), because when fme implemented that he missed that it had stopped working (for only a few months at that time) in normal modules. It was not deprecated in #215533 either since it worked fine and there was no easy way to feed that information back to data module, and we don't know whether this is ever used by anyone.
