Steady stream of small HR-module patches — payroll, shift, and leave workflow fixes

hr-softwarepayrollleave-managementincremental-patchesaccess-control
◆Current state
Frappe HR is shipping frequent, narrowly-scoped point releases. The window covers salary-slip email scheduling tied to posting date (15.60.0), a permission fix letting HR Managers cancel Payroll Entries cleanly (15.60.3), and a run of small UX/correctness fixes to shift assignment, link-field labels, and leave-application access control. All incremental maintenance, no new modules.
◆Where it's heading
This is a mature module in steady upkeep mode, with changes clustered around payroll, shift/roster, and leave workflows — the operational core of HR. The cadence is frequent but small; releases (notably summarized by an LLM) focus on closing edge cases and tightening permissions rather than expanding capability surface.
◆Prediction
Expect continued frequent patch releases targeting payroll, attendance, and leave edge cases, with permission and access-control tightening as a recurring theme. No larger feature direction is visible in these entries.

    15.60.3: clean Payroll Entry cancellation for HR Managers

    Lets HR Managers cancel Payroll Entry records without permission errors, auto-canceling the linked Journal and Payment Ledger entries, and hides an unused Naming Series field. A small but real payroll-workflow improvement.

    15.60.2: shift assignment dialog reset fix

    A UX fix so the shift-assignment dialog resets its fields on close and preloads matching employees. Minor correctness polish.

    15.60.0: salary-slip email scheduling, leave-access lockdown

    Holds Salary Slip emails until the slip's posting date (including bulk Payroll Entry runs) and restricts Leave Application details to the employee and their approver. A useful payroll-timing feature plus a privacy/access-control tightening.
