Recursive Complex Types

[jpattersonz]

Deal with recursive data types in the model binder config compiler and query builder. If the type is already on the query builder stack, then skip it.

Thanks for this, I ran into this issue a few days after your PR. however, I did need to make a modification for my purposes as your solution only allowed for deserialization to 1 level deep. Any additional child entities were ignored. This is the change I made, it allows 10 instances of the elementType to be present before it flags it as existing.
stackContainsType: function (elementType) { //allow the stack to contain 10 of any given type to allow for deeper, but not infinite recursion. var typeCount = this._binderConfigPropertyStack .map(p => p.$type) .filter(function (x) { return x == elementType }) .length; return typeCount > 10;

Interesting, it sounds like the logic in stackContainsType has a flaw. My intent was to not recurse into a type which we already processed, but I suppose the logic should really be that we don't recurse into a Property that we have already processed. If I get some time, I'll take a look at this. Perhaps one of the core JayData developers can provide more insight.

I think the problem may be that the queryBuilder builds out the graph first, and then applies the incoming data, which is why it gets a infinite recursion if a type repeats itself, and also why it stops resolving child elements after the end depth of the queryBuilder graph is reached.
