Guewen Baconnier 4d8400d0bf Fix Contacts view too slow to display
The 'base' Kanban view for res.partner in 9.0 loads the large 'image'
field in the 'search_read' but display the 'small_image'. The js code
also has to issue js calls to get the small images as they have not been
prefetched. This is noticeably slow to load when the large images are
read from S3 which is slower than a local filesystem/database.

This fix loads the 'small_image' instead of the large one.

This bug has been fixed in Odoo 10.0.

Attachments on S3 storage
=========================

This addon allows to store the attachments (documents and assets) on S3 or any
other S3-compatible Object Storage.

Configuration
-------------

Activate S3 storage:

* Create or set the system parameter with the key ``ir_attachment.location``
  and the value in the form ``s3``.

Configure accesses with environment variables:

* ``AWS_HOST`` (not required if using AWS services)
* ``AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID``
* ``AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY``
* ``AWS_BUCKETNAME``

Read-only mode:

The bucket and the file key are stored in the attachment. So if you change the
``AWS_BUCKETNAME`` or the ``ir_attachment.location``, the existing attachments
will still be read on their former bucket. But as soon as they are written over
or new attachments are created, they will be created on the new bucket or on
the other location (db or filesystem). This is a convenient way to be able to
read the production attachments on a replication (since you have the
credentials) without any risk to alter the production data.

This addon must be added in the server wide addons with (``--load`` option):

``--load=web,web_kanban,attachment_s3``

Limitations
-----------

* You need to call ``env['ir.attachment'].force_storage()`` after
  having changed the ``ir_attachment.location`` configuration in order to
  migrate the existing attachments to S3.
