[19.0][ADD] web_grid_view: add community grid view type

[alvaro-domatix]

web_grid_view

Adds a grid view type to Odoo.

A grid view renders records as a 2-dimensional matrix: rows group records by a
field (typically a many2one, with an optional section level), columns represent
consecutive time periods, and each cell aggregates a measure of the records that
fall in that row and column. Useful for timesheets, planning, forecasting and any
data that fits a row/column/date layout.

Features

• Row grouping with an optional section level
• Date columns with selectable ranges: day, week, month, year
• Configurable measure field
• Inline cell editing through grid_update_cell
• Section, column and grand totals
• Magnifier to open the records behind a cell
• Sticky headers and row titles
• Includes a demo grid view on ir.cron

Usage

<record id="view_my_model_grid" model="ir.ui.view">
    <field name="name">my.model.grid</field>
    <field name="model">my.model</field>
    <field name="arch" type="xml">
        <grid_view string="My Grid" editable="1">
            <field name="project_id" type="row" section="1" />
            <field name="user_id" type="row" />
            <field name="date" type="col">
                <range
                    name="week"
                    string="Week"
                    span="week"
                    step="day"
                    default="1"
                />
            </field>
            <field name="unit_amount" type="measure" widget="float_time" />
        </grid_view>
    </field>
</record>

Add grid_view to the action's view_mode to use it.

Can you include demo data with an example over ir.cron for example?

[pedrobaeza]

This model shouldn't be here, as it's loaded no matter if demo or not.

Done! @pedrobaeza
