[5.x]: Error when attempting to resave entries via terminal (nested elements issue)

What happened?

Description

We encountered an issue when trying to resave entries through the terminal. The process fails with an error indicating that nested elements cannot be saved, specifically due to the parent not being assigned correctly. The error seems to occur when we nest entries in a NeoField using CK Editor. After removing the CK Editor entry snippets from the field, the issue persists, even after deleting all revisions.

The command we executed was: php craft resave/entries

Output:

Resaving 1463 entries ...
	- [1/1463] Resaving Content Call Small (2021765) ... Exception 'yii\base\InvalidConfigException' with message 'Invalid owner ID: 2021764'

Start with craft\base\NestedElementTrait.php at line 158 and follow the resave path from craft\console\controllers\ResaveController.php through craft\services\Elements.php. Reproduce with php craft resave/entries using nested entries in a NeoField and inspect the Invalid owner ID path. Done means affected entries resave successfully without the exception.
