Description of changes
This PR adds a new way to load entities based on their ids. This makes entity slicing easier to implement, since the trait implementor does not need to worry about entity dereferences. To make this PR work, type annotations had to be added to the entity manifest.
The API is flexible: users can choose to use the [
AccessTrie] in entity requests to only load some fields of entities. It's also batched, so that as many entities as possible are loaded at the same time (in a breadth-first traversal of the entity manifest).Loading of ancestors is separated from loading of entities so that particular ancestors can be named.
This PR doesn't make this API public yet, but it could be made public with some wrapper structs.
