raw metadata row off the wire. BaseInfo.copyInitData only ever reads
Object.keys() off it, so a plain record is wide enough.
Whether this role may supply the field's value when INSERTing a record. Requires ReadAccess = Allow, on the same two-layer basis as UpdateAccess.
A user who may not create a field does not get an error — the supplied value is dropped and the column takes its default, matching the read path where a denied field is simply absent.
Primary Key
Whether this role may READ the field's values. The aggregation normalizes defensively and
treats anything unrecognized as No Access, so a bad value off the wire fails closed
rather than granting.
Whether this role may modify the field's value on an EXISTING record.
Requires ReadAccess = Allow — a field a user cannot see is one they cannot change. Enforced per row by a CHECK constraint, and again after aggregation because the constraint cannot see across roles.
The metadata provider that built this Info object, when known.
Info getters that resolve sibling metadata (an entity's IS-A children, a permission's RLS
filter, a query's fields, an authorization's roles, …) must read from the SAME provider the
object came from. In a multi-provider process — several GraphQLDataProvider instances with
separateConnection, or a server servicing several connections — the global
Metadata.Provider is a different provider or not set at all. Providers pass themselves to
every Info constructor (new m.class(row, provider)), and container Info objects hand it to
the child Info objects they construct.
undefined for an Info object built outside a provider (tests, ad-hoc construction). Callers
then fall back to the global provider, which is exactly the pre-existing behavior.
ProtectedcopyCopies initialization data from a plain object to the class instance. Only copies properties that already exist on the class to prevent creating new fields. Special handling for DefaultValue fields to extract actual values from SQL Server syntax.

Default JSON serialization for BaseInfo subclasses.
Emits all non-underscored direct field declarations. For _-prefixed private backing fields
(the MJ pattern for collection storage — e.g. _Fields, _RelatedEntities, _OrganicKeys),
emits the value of the corresponding same-named public getter instead. Purely computed getters
without a backing field (display-name formatters, derived flags) are intentionally skipped —
they can throw when source fields are null and don't belong on the wire anyway.
A _-backed getter that throws is omitted from the output rather than aborting the whole
serialization. That omission is safe ONLY because such getters are recomputable: the backing
field is a lazy cache over other serialized state (e.g. QueryInfo.CategoryPath over CategoryID),
so the value is rebuilt on the next access after a warm boot. Do not add a _-backed getter
whose value cannot be recomputed from the serialized fields — a throw would silently drop it.
Nested BaseInfo instances and arrays of them unwrap automatically via JSON.stringify's native toJSON() protocol.
Subclasses may override to emit a filtered subset or custom shape (see EntityFieldValueInfo).
Field-level (column-level) security settings. Maps an entity FIELD to a role, carrying three independent trinary verbs — Read, Update and Create. One row per (field, role).
These rows are only consulted when the parent entity has EntityInfo.EnableFieldLevelSecurity set. Aggregation across the roles a user holds, per verb:
effective = (any matching row Allows) AND NOT (any matching row Denies). See EntityFieldInfo.GetUserFieldPermissions.
