ENH: Allow insertion and deletion of single entities

Summary

See https://gitlab.indiscale.com/caosdb/customers/lfpb/management/-/issues/394. Implementations for entities, parents, and properties were added. The transactions were extended s.th. all objects can be inserted, retrieved, and deleted.

Focus

Most of the new stuff is in entity.cpp and entity.h. See test_entity for the new functionality.

Test Environment

Unit and integration tests should be sufficient.
