Deep PATCHing is not possible/easy

[xurei]

Entity {
    @arrayProp({items: SubEntity})
    subs: SubEntity[];
}

SubEntity {
    name: string;
    value: number;
}

PATCH with { "subs.0.value": 42 } or similar should be possible. It's not with the default behaviour.

Solution: one of these (non-exhaustive)

• Maybe create some behaviours ?
• Allow a persist() hook ?
• Use preSend ?

[xurei]

The persist() hook has been created, however it's still up to the developer to write the expected behavior.
We could add a bunch of different, pre-defined persist() behaviors that the dev would just select from a list.

I made some progress in 7448c5d,
it is now possible to GET and POST a submodel. PATCHing should follow soon...
