[15.0][ADD] mail_partner_company_resolve

[nobuQuartile]

In models like project.task that interact directly with customers, incoming emails add CC addresses as followers, but the company restriction is not considered.
In a multi-company environment, if a customer sends an email with a CC address that belongs to a contact dedicated to another company, that contact is added as a follower.
Since the user lacks access rights to that contact’s company, they can no longer view the chatter.

This module addresses the issue by adding a company domain when matching email addresses to contacts.
If no contact visible to that company is found, a new contact is created and that company is set on the company field.

and ensures new partners created from emails are assigned to the current company.

Do we need this functionality?

To be safe.

Suggested change

	if not extra_domain:
	extra_domain = []
	extra_domain.append(("company_id", "in", [self.env.company.id, False]))
	extra_domain = expression.AND(
	[extra_domain or [], [("company_id", "in", [self.env.company.id, False])]]
	)

Assigning the default company can be handled with https://github.com/OCA/partner-contact/tree/15.0/partner_company_default IMO. Any reason we should force it here?

Suggested change

	threads_with_default_company = self.with_context(
	default_company_id=self.env.company.id
	)
	partners = super(
	MailThread, threads_with_default_company
	)._mail_find_partner_from_emails(
	emails,
	records=records,
	force_create=force_create,
	extra_domain=extra_domain,
	)
	return partners
	return super()._mail_find_partner_from_emails(
	emails,
	records=records,
	force_create=force_create,
	extra_domain=extra_domain,
	)

Name suggestion: mail_partner_resolution_by_company (which is actually the name in the manifest file).
