Execution Dependency Relation

This is an enumeration used in Stencila Schema describing how one node depends on another for execution.

It exists to classify execution dependencies with more precision than a simple linked list of prerequisites, helping Stencila reason about compilation, execution order, and re-execution.

See ExecutionDependency.dependencyRelation for the property that uses this enumeration.
