Add test to show why delete-before-insert may be challenging

There are a few requests (doctrine#5742, doctrine#5368, doctrine#5109, doctrine#6776) that ask to change the order of operations in the UnitOfWork to perform "deletes before inserts", or where such a switch appears to solve a reported problem.

I don't want to say that this is not doable. But this PR at least adds two tricky examples where INSERTs need to be done before an UPDATE can refer to new database rows; and where the UPDATE needs to happen to release foreign key references to other entities before those can be DELETEd.

So, at least as long as all operations of a certain type are to be executed in blocks, this example allows no other order of operations than the current one.
