AbstractInternalConstructs an instance of an Entity.
data needed to construct an instance of an entity viewerContext - the ViewerContext reading this entity id - the ID of this entity databaseFields - all underlying fields for this entity's data selectedFields - selected fields for this entity from TSelectedFields type
This should only be overridden in cases where additional data validation is needed. The params should not be modified when calling super during constructions.

Entity is a privacy-first data model.
A instance of an entity represents a single "row" of persisted data in a database that a viewer, represented by the corresponding ViewerContext, has permission to read.
Create, read, update, and delete permissions for an entity are declaratively defined using an EntityPrivacyPolicy.
Entites are loaded through an EntityLoader, which is responsible for orchestrating fetching, caching, and authorization of reading "rows".
Entities are mutated and deleted through an EntityMutator, which is responsible for orchestrating database writes, cache invalidation, and authorization of writing "rows".
All concrete entity implementations should extend this class and provide their own EntityCompanionDefinition.
