The "Create invoices" button on a contract stays visible while the contract has nothing left to invoice (e.g. all its lines are canceled). In that case clicking it silently did nothing, leaving the user wondering whether the action failed. Add `action_recurring_create_invoice`, used by the button, which falls back to a warning notification when `recurring_create_invoice` did not create any invoice.

The Create invoices button on a contract form stays visible while the contract has nothing left to invoice (for instance when all of its lines are canceled, so
create_invoice_visibilityis still true but no line can be invoiced).Clicking it in that situation silently did nothing: no invoice, no message, no error. Users reasonably assume the action failed.
This PR adds
action_recurring_create_invoice, which the button now calls. It delegates torecurring_create_invoiceand, when no invoice was created, returns adisplay_notificationwarning ("Nothing to invoice") in the top right corner instead of returning nothing.recurring_create_invoiceitself is left untouched, so modules inheriting or calling it keep their current behaviour.Covered by two new tests in
contract/tests/test_contract.py.
