Purpose
=======

Currently, when we click on “Settings” on the Home Dashboard, we arrive
on a new Dashboard with several pieces of information like Installed Apps,
invite new users, or translations. Some informations are reachable in
several ways, which is not necessary.

We would like to remove this page and replace it with the General Settings
page directly. That makes more sense to the user who click on “Settings”. The
present informations will be dispatched in the menu or in the general settings
for a better usability.

Specification
=============

This commit move code from web_settings_dashboard in order to put the features
in settings directly. To do so, we choose to move code to base_setup, and create
widget on the settings form view to keep features. Concerned features are: invite
users, dev tools, odoo edition number and IAP account link.

Some people prefer not to be disturbed by any flashy information.  In
this commit, we add an option to do just that.  When the 'show_effect'
option is set to false, then the messages that would be displayed by an
effect will be displayed in a notification.
