## Description
This change adds support for nested object fields in HGE IR and Schema Cache, the Data Connectors backend and API, and the MongoDB agent.
### Data Connector API changes
- The `/schema` endpoint response now includes an optional set of GraphQL type definitions. Table column types can refer to these definitions by name.
- Queries can now include a new field type `object` which contains a column name and a nested query. This allows querying into a nested object within a field.
### MongoDB agent changes
- Add support for querying into nested documents using the new `object` field type.
### HGE changes
- The `Backend` type class has a new type family `XNestedObjects b` which controls whether or not a backend supports querying into nested objects. This is currently enabled only for the `DataConnector` backend.
- For backends that support nested objects, the `FieldInfo` type gets a new constructor `FINestedObject`, and the `AnnFieldG` type gets a new constructor `AFNestedObject`.
- If the DC `/schema` endpoint returns any custom GraphQL type definitions they are stored in the `TableInfo` for each table in the source.
- During schema cache building, the function `addNonColumnFields` will check whether any column types match custom GraphQL object types stored in the `TableInfo`. If so, they are converted into `FINestedObject` instead of `FIColumn` in the `FieldInfoMap`.
- When building the `FieldParser`s from `FieldInfo` (function `fieldSelection`) any `FINestedObject` fields are converted into nested object parsers returning `AFNestedObject`.
- The `DataConnector` query planner converts `AFNestedObject` fields into `object` field types in the query sent to the agent.
## Limitations
### HGE not yet implemented:
- Support for nested arrays
- Support for nested objects/arrays in mutations
- Support for nested objects/arrays in order-by
- Support for filters (`where`) in nested objects/arrays
- Support for adding custom GraphQL types via track table metadata API
- Support for interface and union types
- Tests for nested objects
### Mongo agent not yet implemented:
- Generate nested object types from validation schema
- Support for aggregates
- Support for order-by
- Configure agent port
- Build agent in CI
- Agent tests for nested objects and MongoDB agent

## Description
->
This PR allows DC agents to define custom aggregate functions for their scalar types.
### Related Issues
->
GDC-189
### Solution and Design
>
We added a new property `aggregate_functions` to the scalar types capabilities. This allows the agent author to specify a set of aggregate functions supported by each scalar type, along with the function's result type.
During GraphQL schema generation, the custom aggregate functions are available via a new method `getCustomAggregateOperators` on the `Backend` type class.
Custom functions are merged with the builtin aggregate functions when building GraphQL schemas for table aggregate fields and for `order_by` operators on array relations.
### Steps to test and verify
>
• Codec tests for aggregate function capabilities have been added to the unit tests.
• Some custom aggregate operators have been added to the reference agent and are used in a new test in `api-tests`.

Updates to the latest version of autodocodec and uses the new features, in particular `discriminatedUnionCodec`.
This allows us to remove the `ValueWrapper*` types and `sumTypeCodec`. Sum types are now encoded as discriminated unions.

->
Fleshes out the Capabilities types used by Data Connector agents.

### Solution and Design ✍

Capabilities are divided into sections for queries, mutation, subscriptions, filtering and relationships:
```haskell
data Capabilities = Capabilities
{ cQueries :: Maybe QueryCapabilities,
cMutations :: Maybe MutationCapabilities,
cSubscriptions :: Maybe SubscriptionCapabilities,
cFiltering :: Maybe FilteringCapabilities,
cRelationships :: Maybe RelationshipCapabilities
}
```
Each section is optional. If the section is absent it means the the related capabilities are not supported by the agent.
The types for each section can contain additional details about exactly what is supported. E.g.
```haskell
data QueryCapabilities = QueryCapabilities
{ qcSupportsPrimaryKeys :: Bool
}
```
These are currently mostly empty, but will be filled in later.

This is part of a merge train towards GHC 9.2 compatibility. The main
issue is the use of the new abstract `KeyMap` in 2.0. See:

BEHAVIOR CHANGE NOTE: This change causes a different arbitrary ordering
of serialized Json, for example during metadata export. CLI users care
about this in particular, and so we need to call it out as a _behavior
change_ as we did in v2.5.0. The good news though is that after this
change ordering should be more stable (alphabetical key order).
