Grid elements manager widget

What changed

Section titled “What changed”
  • New optional YAML flag front.embedSupport: true opts a child module into embed mode. Without the flag, codegen output is identical to today.
  • With the flag, the child gains a polymorphic list (mode: 'standalone' | 'embed'), a *-form-embed.component.ts whose parent FK is injected at submit() time (not in the FormGroup), and a getXEmbedColumns factory that drops the parent FK column.
  • widget.type: grid-elements-manager now dispatches in the parent’s detail shell. The new partial emits <au-{child}-list mode="embed"> inside @if (mode() === 'edit') and codegen reads the child’s YAML to resolve the FK back-reference. Targets without embedSupport: true fail fast with an actionable error.

Why it matters

Section titled “Why it matters”

The widget had been canonized but inert since SPEC-09 — declared in WidgetType, skipped at dispatch with console.warn. SPEC-15 unblocks it without the backend nested-writes change SPEC-10 would have required: each child CRUD stays an independent mutation, and the embed widget reuses the child’s existing list and form templates instead of a hand-rolled CRUD shell. The orphaned @aurora/components/grid-elements-manager runtime and the Material legacy partial are removed. Parents with front.detailMode: dialog cannot host the widget — codegen warns and omits it to avoid a dialog-in-dialog UX.
