[MERGE] Alias Visibility and Salesteams View. Improve the display of alias in form views and in empty list help messages. Improve the use, visibility and display of salesteams.

ir_action:
- removed size on char fields
- help is now somewhat dynamic; it calls get_empty_list_help on the related model that could be overridden to display a custom message instead of the generic one defined on the action
BaseModel:
- added get_empty_list_help method, that basically returns the help that is given into parameter. Its purpose is to be overridden by models that should customize the empty list help message
