Description
PR https://github.com/Azure/data-api-builder/pull/2138 adds support for querying relationships that reference the same entity (self-join tables).
Extend multiple create functionality to support relationships that reference itself.
Some things to consider are:
- Accurate determination of referencing/referenced entity. Though, referenced and referencing entity are both the same, we need to be able to identify whether **top level item** (or) **related item** should be created first.
- The current data structure maintains the relationship metadata at the entity level. PR https://github.com/Azure/data-api-builder/pull/2138 introduces changes to maintain the relationship metadata at the granularity level of relationship. This new data structure should be used during query generation and rest of the mutation flows.
