In odoo, by default some modules are marked as auto installable by the ``auto_install`` key present in the manifest. * This feature is very useful for "glue" modules that allow two modules to work together. (A typical example is ``sale_stock`` which allows ``sale`` and ``stock`` modules to work together). * However, Odoo SA also marks some modules as auto installable, even though this is not technically required. This can happen for modules the company wants to promote like ``iap``, modules with a big wow effect like ``partner_autocomplete``, or some modules they consider useful by default like ``account_edi``. See the discussion: https://github.com/odoo/odoo/issues/71190 This module allows to change by configuration, the list of auto installable modules, adding or removing some modules to auto install.
