Implemented lazy evaluation.

  • Initially, references to other database objects are now given as an ID rather than an object.
  • Every model class now has an evaluate() function, which gets all the objects that object has references to. Returns true if it got all the values correctly, false if there are invalid references.
  • Every connector now first evaluates an object before storing, to make sure only objects with valid references get stored.
