Description
### What happened?
After updating the config file and the hot-reload fails after the `ValidateConfig` function inside the `RuntimeConfigProvider.cs` DAB doesn't repopulate the entities as they were previously set up before the hot-reload. At first I thought it was a problem specifically related to autoentities, but after doing some more testing this is an issue related to entities in general. Which means that after hot-reload fails we cannot access any entity at all.
