[19.0] base_user_role: migration to Odoo 19 (privileges, constraints, group_ids, view fixes) — request branch

[heyagent]

Hi OCA,

We’ve completed an Odoo 19 migration for base_user_role and would like to open a PR. Could you please create the 19.0 branch on this repository so we can submit it?

Summary of changes applied during the migration to 19.0:

• Replace removed res.groups.category_id usage with the new privilege model:
  • Add a res.groups.privilege record “User roles” and link it to the ir.module.category “User roles”.
  • In res.users.role, introduce group_privilege_id (related to group_id.privilege_id).
  • Keep group_category_id as a read‑only related to the privilege’s category_id for display and grouping in the UI.
  • Ensure newly created roles default their inherited group’s privilege_id to the module’s “User roles” privilege.
• Update constraint API:
  • Replace deprecated _sql_constraints with models.Constraint for the unique (user_id, role_id) on res.users.role.line.
• Update role→group computation and user group syncing:
  • Use all_implied_ids (transitive closure) on groups as per v19.
  • Use group_ids (not groups_id) everywhere when setting user groups.
• Adjust views to v19 structure:
  • The users list view no longer has company_id; insert the role tags after the login column instead.

Files touched in the migration include (module paths):

• OCA/base_user_role/models/role.py
• OCA/base_user_role/models/user.py
• OCA/base_user_role/views/user.xml
• OCA/base_user_role/data/ir_module_category.xml

Once the 19.0 branch is available, I’ll open a PR with these changes.

Thanks!
