Interface IDynamicCode

Dynamic code files like Razor or WebApis. Supports many properties like App, etc. to ensure that the dynamic code has everything you need.
Also provides many Conversions between IEntity and IDynamicEntity. Important for dynamic code files like Razor or WebApi. Note that there are many overloads to ensure that AsDynamic and AsEntity "just work" even if you give them the original data.
