1//! Foreign key constraint validation for Term.
2//!
3//! This module provides foreign key validation capabilities for ensuring referential integrity
4//! between tables. Foreign keys ensure that values in a child table's column exist as primary
5//! keys in a parent table, preventing orphaned records and maintaining data consistency.
6//!
7//! # Examples
8//!
9//! ## Basic Foreign Key Validation
10//!
11//! ```rust
12//! use term_guard::constraints::ForeignKeyConstraint;
13//! use term_guard::core::{Check, Level};
14//!
15//! // Validate that all order.customer_id values exist in customers.id
16//! let constraint = ForeignKeyConstraint::new("orders.customer_id", "customers.id");
17//!
18//! let check = Check::builder("referential_integrity")
19//!     .level(Level::Error)
20//!     .with_constraint(constraint)
21//!     .build();
22//! ```
23//!
24//! ## Foreign Key with Null Handling
25//!
26//! ```rust
27//! use term_guard::constraints::ForeignKeyConstraint;
28//!
29//! // Allow null values in the foreign key column
30//! let constraint = ForeignKeyConstraint::new("orders.customer_id", "customers.id")
31//!     .allow_nulls(true);
32//! ```

43/// Foreign key constraint for validating referential integrity between tables.
44///
45/// This constraint ensures that all non-null values in a child table's foreign key column
46/// exist as values in the parent table's referenced column. It's essential for maintaining
47/// data consistency and preventing orphaned records.
48///
49/// The constraint supports:
50/// - Inner and left joins for different validation strategies
51/// - Null value handling (allow/disallow nulls in foreign key)
52/// - Custom error messages and violation reporting
53/// - Performance optimization through predicate pushdown
