[IMP] website: allow to bypass the website domain redirection

When we go to the website preview in the Odoo backend, if the current
domain used (to access the backend) is not the same as the one of the
previewed website, we redirect the user, and he might have to reconnect.
The same is done when using the website switcher.
Note: in the first case, the user is warned. We should probably do the
same for the second case (?).

This is a problem for the Odoo support team. When they connect to a
customer database upon user request, the <customer_db_name>.odoo.com
address is used. But as soon as they are using the website app, they are
redirected to the real website domains... where they are disconnected
and cannot connect themselves.
To fix this issue, we allow setting up a session info parameter to
bypass those website redirections. This is not to be done by real users:
this will come with bugs (for the support team). Indeed, we are normally
redirecting for a reason: many flows rely on using the right domain
when visiting a specific website. Depending on what users have in their
page, this could also simply make the website preview iframe crash.
