dabeedj: Added quantities info for storefront

Whats it all about?

So, in Magento we have an option in config:

Stores > Configuration > Catalog > Inventory > Display Out Of Stock Products (Y/N)

This implies that we'll get to see any out of stock products at any point where we would expect. For a lot of people - me included, it implies we'd get to see child options etc.

Unfortunately its not the case. There are quite a few places where products are removed from various collections due to the stock_status value.

In this extension I've attempted to stop this from happening if the aforementioned configuration is set to Yes.

Note

This is really temporary solution, we're hoping to get the issues fixed in the core following conversations with various developers/maintainers/contributors. The problem with this is that its a case of, is this a Bug or a Feature?

If you would like to show options/swatches even if all children are out of stock you need to make a template change, you need to remove the $product->isSalable() checks from the Magento_Catalog::product/view/form.phtml template
