Description
Hi,
it would be great if generated entity class had access to array of RelationInfo like it has access to all properties.
Right now eager loading relations requires
- explicit list of all relations and QueryBuilder.eager
or - hard reflection loop calling getTarget()
Explicit list __ALL_RELATIONS would ease up creating algorithms like eager loading.
What do you think?

Research direction
Start by reviewing how generated entity classes expose __ALL_PROPERTIES, then trace RelationInfo and QueryBuilder.eager usage for the eager-loading case described. Done means generated entities provide an analogous __ALL_RELATIONS array that supports relation-discovery algorithms, with coverage for the generated API.
