Populate all ancestors recursively.

[dimitri-yatsenko]

In rev. 2.7.4, dj.AutoPopulate/populate and dj.AutoPopulate/parpopulate will have the option to populate all ancestors (referenced tables) recursively.

For example, if computed table 'C' has a foreign key reference to computed table B and table B in turn refers to table A, then the statement

populate(C,restriction)

will be equivalent to

populate(A,restriction)
populate(B,restriction)
populate(C,restriction)

The feature is activated by setting the flag populateAncestors to true:

dj.set('populateAncestors',true)

By default, populateAncestor is set to false to avoid the overhead associated with populating the ancestors.

Note that the restriction, if any, must be then applicable to all the ancestors.

[dimitri-yatsenko]

Both populate and parpopulate can now populate the ancestor tables recursively. When populateAncestors is set to true, then populate cannot have output arguments.
