This PR makes a more clear gap between `version_createdAt` /
`version_updatedAt` and `createdAt` / `updatedAt` columns / fields in
mongodb.
- `createdAt` - This should be a new value in a new version. Before this
change it was the same all the time. Should remain the same on autosave.
- The same for `updatedAt`, but it should be updated on every change
(including autosave)
- `version_createdAt` - Should remain equal to `createdAt` from the
parent collection / table
- `version_updatedAt` - On a latest version it makes sense this be the
same as `updatedAt` from the parent collection / table, as all the
`version_*` fields should be just synced with it
- Adds the upsert method to the database interface
- Adds a mongodb specific option to extend the updateOne to accept
mongoDB Query Options (to pass `upsert: true`)
- Added upsert method to all database adapters
- Uses db.upsert in the payload preferences update operation
Includes a test using payload-preferences
## Description
- Adds a new "join" field type to Payload and is supported by all database adapters
- The UI uses a table view for the new field
- `db-mongodb` changes relationships to be stored as ObjectIDs instead of strings (for now querying works using both types internally to the DB so no data migration should be necessary unless you're querying directly, see breaking changes for details
- Adds a reusable traverseFields utility to Payload to make it easier to work with nested fields, used internally and for plugin maintainers
```ts
export const Categories: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'categories',
fields: [
{
name: 'relatedPosts',
type: 'join',
collection: 'posts',
on: 'category',
}
]
}
```
BREAKING CHANGES:
All mongodb relationship and upload values will be stored as MongoDB ObjectIDs instead of strings going forward. If you have existing data and you are querying data directly, outside of Payload's APIs, you get different results. For example, a `contains` query will no longer works given a partial ID of a relationship since the ObjectID requires the whole identifier to work.

## Description
Adds `virtual` property to the fields config. Providing `true`
completely disables the field in the DB, which is useful for [Virtual
Fields](https://payloadcms.com/blog/learn-how-virtual-fields-can-help-solve-common-cms-challenges)
Disables abillity to query by a field with `virtual: true`.
Currently, they bloat the DB with unused tables / columns, which may as
well introduce additional joins.

The `BlockField` type is not representative of the underlying "blocks"
field type, which is plural, i.e. `BlocksField`. This is a semantic
change that will better align the type with the field.
## Breaking Changes
Types related to the `blocks` field have change names. If you were using
the `BlockField` or related types in your own applications, simply
change the import name to be plural and instead of singular.
Old (singular):
```ts
import type {
BlockField,
BlockFieldClient,
BlockFieldValidation,
BlockFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
BlockFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
BlockFieldErrorClientComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorServerComponent,
BlockFieldLabelClientComponent,
BlockFieldLabelServerComponent,
} from 'payload'
```
New (plural):
```ts
import type {
BlocksField,
BlocksFieldClient,
BlocksFieldValidation,
BlocksFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
BlocksFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorClientComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorServerComponent,
BlocksFieldLabelClientComponent,
BlocksFieldLabelServerComponent,
} from 'payload'
```
