## 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

- 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

- 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

### Description
This PR removes `ServerConfigCtx` and `HasServerConfigCtx`. Instead, it favours different approaches:
- when the code was only using one field, it passes that field explicitly (usually `SQLGenCtx` or `CheckFeatureFlag`)
- when the code was using several fields, but in only one function, it inlines
- for the cache build, it introduces `CacheStaticConfig` and `CacheDynamicConfig`, which are subsets of `AppEnv` and `AppContext` respectively
The main goal of this is to help with the modularization of the engine: as `ServerConfigCtx` had fields whose types were imported from several unrelated parts of the engine, using it tied together parts of the engine that should not be aware of one another (such as tying together `Hasura.LogicalModel` and `Hasura.GraphQL.Schema`).
The bulk of this PR is a change to the cache build, as a follow up to #8509: instead of giving the entire `ServerConfigCtx` as a incremental rule argument, we only give the new `CacheDynamicConfig` struct, which has fewer fields. The other required fields, that were coming from the `AppEnv`, are now given via the `HasCacheStaticConfig` constraint, which is a "subset" of `HasAppEnv`.
(Some further work could include moving `StringifyNumbers` out of `GraphQL.Schema.Options`, given how it is used all across the codebase, including in `RQL.DML`.)

## Description
This PR is a incremental step towards achieving the goal of #8344. It is a less ambitious version of #8484.
This PR removes all references to `HasServerConfigCtx` from the cache build and removes `ServerConfigCtx` from `CacheBuildParams`, making `ServerConfigCtx` an argument being passed around manually instead. This has several benefits: by making it an arrow argument, we now properly integrate the fields that change over time in the dependency framework, as they should be, and we can clean up some of the top-level app code.
## Implementation
In practice, this PR introduces a `HasServerConfigCtx` instance for `CacheRWT`, the monad we use to build the cache, so we can retrieve the `ServerConfigCtx` in the implementation of `CacheRWM`. This contributes to reducing the amount of `HasServerConfigCtx` in the code: we can remove `SchemaUpdateT` altogether, and we can remove the `HasServerConfigCtx` instance of `Handler`. This makes `HasServerConfigCtx` almost **an implementation detail of the Metadata API**.
This first step is enough to achieve the goal of #8344: we can now build the schema cache in the app monad, since we no longer rely on `HasServerConfigCtx` to build it.
## Drawbacks
This PR does not attempt to remove the use of `ServerConfigCtx` itself in the schema cache build: doing so would make this PR much much bigger. Ideally, to avoid having all the static fields given as arrow-ish arguments to the cache, we could depend on `HasAppEnv` in the cache build, and use `AppContext` as an arrow argument. But making the cache build depend on the full `AppEnv` and `AppContext` creates a lot of circular imports; and since removing `ServerConfigCtx` itself isn't required to achieve #8344, this PR keeps it wholesale and defers cleaning it to a future PR.
A negative consequence of this is that we need an `Eq` instance on `ServerConfigCtx`, and that instance is inelegant.
## Future work
There are several further steps we can take in parallel after this is merged. First, again, we can make a new version of #8344, removing `CacheBuild`, FINALLY. As for `ServerConfigCtx`, we can split it / rename it to make ad-hoc structures. If it turns out that `ServerConfigCtx` is only ever used for the schema cache build, we could split it between `CacheBuildEnv` and `CacheBuildContext`, which will be subsets of `AppEnv` and `AppContext`, avoiding import loops.

This PR is on top of #7789.
### Description
This PR entirely rewrites the API of the Tracing library, to make `interpTraceT` a thing of the past. Before this change, we ran traces by sticking a `TraceT` on top of whatever we were doing. This had several major drawbacks:
- we were carrying a bunch of `TraceT` across the codebase, and the entire codebase had to know about it
- we needed to carry a second class constraint around (`HasReporterM`) to be able to run all of those traces
- we kept having to do stack rewriting with `interpTraceT`, which went from inconvenient to horrible
- we had to declare several behavioral instances on `TraceT m`
This PR rewrite all of `Tracing` using a more conventional model: there is ONE `TraceT` at the bottom of the stack, and there is an associated class constraint `MonadTrace`: any part of the code that happens to satisfy `MonadTrace` is able to create new traces. We NEVER have to do stack rewriting, `interpTraceT` is gone, and `TraceT` and `Reporter` become implementation details that 99% of the code is blissfully unaware of: code that needs to do tracing only needs to declare that the monad in which it operates implements `MonadTrace`.
In doing so, this PR revealed **several bugs in the codebase**: places where we were expecting to trace something, but due to the default instance of `HasReporterM IO` we would actually not do anything. This PR also splits the code of `Tracing` in more byte-sized modules, with the goal of potentially moving to `server/lib` down the line.
### Remaining work
This PR is a draft; what's left to do is:
- [x] make Pro compile; i haven't updated `HasuraPro/Main` yet
- [x] document Tracing by writing a note that explains how to use the library, and the meaning of "reporter", "trace" and "span", as well as the pitfalls
- [x] discuss some of the trade-offs in the implementation, which is why i'm opening this PR already despite it not fully building yet
- [x] it depends on #7789 being merged first

### Description
Each Backend executes queries against the database in a slightly different stack: Postgres uses its own `TXeT`, MSSQL uses a variant of it, BigQuery is simply in `ExceptT QErr IO`... To accommodate those variations, we had originally introduced an `ExecutionMonad b` type family in `BackendExecute`, allowing each backend to describe its own stack. It was then up to that backend's `BackendTransport` instance to implement running said stack, and converting the result back into our main app monad.
However, this was not without complications: `TraceT` is one of them: as it usually needs to be on the top of the stack, converting from one stack to the other implies the use `interpTraceT`, which is quite monstrous. Furthermore, as part of the Entitlement Services work, we're trying to move to a "Services" architecture in which the entire engine runs in one base monad, that delegates features and dependencies to monad constraints; and as a result we'd like to minimize the number of different monad stacks we have to maintain and translate from and to in the codebase.
To improve things, this PR changes `ExecutionMonad b` from an _absolute_ stack to a _relative_ one: i.e.: what needs to be stacked on top of our base monad for the execution. In `Transport`, we then only need to pop the top of the stack, and voila. This greatly simplifies the implementation of the backends, as there's no longer any need to do any stack transformation: MySQL's implementation becomes a `runIdentityT`! This also removes most mentions of `TraceT` from the execution code since it's no longer required: we can rely on the base monad's existing `MonadTrace` constraint.
To continue encapsulating monadic actions in `DBStepInfo` and avoid threading a bunch of `forall` all over the place, this PR introduces a small local helper: `OnBaseMonad`. One only downside of all this is that this requires adding `MonadBaseControl IO m` constraint all over the place: previously, we would run directly on `IO` and lift, and would therefore not need to bring that constraint all the way.

Hooks up event trigger codecs from #7237. This required fixing a problem where some backend types implemented `defaultTriggerOnReplication` with `error` which caused the server to crash when evaluating those for default values in codecs. The changes here add a type family to `Backend` called `XEventTriggers` that signals backend support for event triggers, and changes the type of `defaultTriggerOnReplication` to from `TriggerOnReplication` to `Maybe (XEventTriggers b, TriggerOnReplication)` so that it can only be implemented with a `Just` value if `XEventTriggers b` is inhabited. This emulates some existing type families in `Backend`. (Thanks to @daniel-chambers for this suggestion!)
I used the implementation of `defaultTriggerOnReplication` as a signal for event triggers support to prune the Metadata API so that event trigger fields will not appear in the OpenAPI spec for backend types that do not support event triggers. The codec version of the API will also not emit or accept those fields for those backend types. I think I could use `Typeable` to test whether `XEventTriggers` is `Void` instead of testing whether `defaultTriggerOnReplication` is `Nothing`. But the codec implementation will crash anyway if `defaultTriggerOnReplication` is `Nothing`.
I checked to make sure that graphql-engine-pro still compiles.

## Description ✍️
This PR introduces a new feature to enable/disable event triggers during logical replication of table data for PostgreSQL and MS-SQL data sources. We introduce a new field `trigger_on_replication` in the `*_create_event_trigger` metadata API. By default the event triggers will not fire for logical data replication.
## Changelog ✍️
__Component__ : server
__Type__: feature
__Product__: community-edition
### Short Changelog
Add option to enable/disable event triggers on logically replicated tables
### Related Issues ✍
https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine/issues/8814https://hasurahq.atlassian.net/browse/GS-252
### Solution and Design
- By default, triggers do **not** fire when the session mode is `replica` in Postgres, so if the `triggerOnReplication` is set to `true` for an event trigger we run the query `ALTER TABLE #{tableTxt} ENABLE ALWAYS TRIGGER #{triggerNameTxt};` so that the trigger fires always irrespective of the `session_replication_role`
- By default, triggers do fire in case of replication in MS-SQL, so if the `triggerOnReplication` is set to `false` for an event trigger we add a clause `NOT FOR REPLICATION` to the the SQL when the trigger is created/altered, which sets the `is_not_for_replication` for the trigger as `true` and it does not fire during logical replication.
### Steps to test and verify ✍
- Run hspec integration tests for HGE
## Server checklist ✍
### Metadata ✍
Does this PR add a new Metadata feature?
- ✅ Yes
- Does `export_metadata`/`replace_metadata` supports the new metadata added?

What is the `Cacheable` type class about?
```haskell
class Eq a => Cacheable a where
unchanged :: Accesses -> a -> a -> Bool
default unchanged :: (Generic a, GCacheable (Rep a)) => Accesses -> a -> a -> Bool
unchanged accesses a b = gunchanged (from a) (from b) accesses
```
Its only method is an alternative to `(==)`. The added value of `unchanged` (and the additional `Accesses` argument) arises _only_ for one type, namely `Dependency`. Indeed, the `Cacheable (Dependency a)` instance is non-trivial, whereas every other `Cacheable` instance is completely boilerplate (and indeed either generated from `Generic`, or simply `unchanged _ = (==)`). The `Cacheable (Dependency a)` instance is the only one where the `Accesses` argument is not just passed onwards.
The only callsite of the `unchanged` method is in the `ArrowCache (Rule m)` method. That is to say that the `Cacheable` type class is used to decide when we can re-use parts of the schema cache between Metadata operations.
So what is the `Cacheable (Dependency a)` instance about? Normally, the output of a `Rule m a b` is re-used when the new input (of type `a`) is equal to the old one. But sometimes, that's too coarse: it might be that a certain `Rule m a b` only depends on a small part of its input of type `a`. A `Dependency` allows us to spell out what parts of `a` are being depended on, and these parts are recorded as values of types `Access a` in the state `Accesses`.
If the input `a` changes, but not in a way that touches the recorded `Accesses`, then the output `b` of that rule can be re-used without recomputing.
So now you understand _why_ we're passing `Accesses` to the `unchanged` method: `unchanged` is an equality check in disguise that just needs some additional context.
But we don't need to pass `Accesses` as a function argument. We can use the `reflection` package to pass it as type-level context. So the core of this PR is that we change the instance declaration from
```haskell
instance (Cacheable a) => Cacheable (Dependency a) where
```
to
```haskell
instance (Given Accesses, Eq a) => Eq (Dependency a) where
```
and use `(==)` instead of `unchanged`.
If you haven't seen `reflection` before: it's like a `MonadReader`, but it doesn't require a `Monad`.
In order to pass the current `Accesses` value, instead of simply passing the `Accesses` as a function argument, we need to instantiate the `Given Accesses` context. We use the `give` method from the `reflection` package for that.
```haskell
give :: forall r. Accesses -> (Given Accesses => r) -> r
unchanged :: (Given Accesses => Eq a) => Accesses -> a -> a -> Bool
unchanged accesses a b = give accesses (a == b)
```
With these three components in place, we can delete the `Cacheable` type class entirely.
The remainder of this PR is just to remove the `Cacheable` type class and its instances.

### Description
This monster of a PR took way too long. As the title suggests, it reduces the schema context carried in the readers to the very strict minimum. In practice, that means that to build a source, we only require:
- the global `SchemaContext`
- the global `SchemaOptions` (soon to be renamed `SchemaSourceOptions`)
- that source's `SourceInfo`
Furthermore, _we no longer carry "default" customization options throughout the schema_. All customization information is extracted from the `SourceInfo`, when required. This prevents an entire category of bugs we had previously encountered, such as parts of the code using uninitialized / unupdated customization info.
In turn, this meant that we could remove the explicit threading of the `SourceInfo` throughout the schema, since it is now always available through the reader context.
Finally, this meant making a few adjustments to relay and actions as well, such as the introduction of a new separate "context" for actions, and a change to how we create some of the action-specific postgres scalar parsers.
I'll highlight with review comments the areas of interest.

This upgrades the version of Ormolu required by the HGE repository to v0.5.0.1, and reformats all code accordingly.
Ormolu v0.5 reformats code that uses infix operators. This is mostly useful, adding newlines and indentation to make it clear which operators are applied first, but in some cases, it's unpleasant. To make this easier on the eyes, I had to do the following:
* Add a few fixity declarations (search for `infix`)
* Add parentheses to make precedence clear, allowing Ormolu to keep everything on one line
* Rename `relevantEq` to `(==~)` in #6651 and set it to `infix 4`
* Add a few _.ormolu_ files (thanks to @hallettj for helping me get started), mostly for Autodocodec operators that don't have explicit fixity declarations
In general, I think these changes are quite reasonable. They mostly affect indentation.
