Marie 4a6ad48a62 Fix - Record text should always be visible and in first position in views (#14598)
Fixes https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/issues/14442

Issues were
1. Table headers always used label metadata identifier (or record text)
as first column, while table body followed viewFields positions
2. Label metadata identifier should always be visible and in first
position for the table views to work as expected, while when updating
the label metadata identifier for an object, no changes were brought to
the viewFields

To fix that
1. In the BE: 
- a new logic is implemented to i) update label identifier's viewFields
position and visibility when an object's label identifier is updated to
a new field; ii) add validation on the update of a viewField's position
and visibility to make sure the label identifier's viewField always has
the lowest position + is visible
- a command was added to check all existing views and viewfields
3. In the FE: at first I tried to replicate the logic of the headers
(based on the label identifier rather than the positions) on the body,
but it was too complex and error-prone as in multiple places we are
based on the positions. It also feels more right to have only one source
of truth which is the viewField position. @lucasbordeau if that does not
suit you, we can throw an error if the field with the lowest position is
not the label metadata identifier, as you said the table view will be
very buggy / wont work if the label identifier is not in the first
position. but now it should never be the case thanks to the validation
implemented in the BE

This should be migrated to viewFieldService V2 when relevant @Weiko

Does the world need another CRM?

We built Twenty for three reasons:

CRMs are too expensive, and users are trapped. Companies use locked-in customer data to hike prices. It shouldn't be that way.

A fresh start is required to build a better experience. We can learn from past mistakes and craft a cohesive experience inspired by new UX patterns from tools like Notion, Airtable or Linear.

We believe in Open-source and community. Hundreds of developers are already building Twenty together. Once we have plugin capabilities, a whole ecosystem will grow around it.
