[Cedar Doc Issue] 'action in <Entity>' example is invalid cedar in the basic cedar syntax page

[JoshuaWilkes]

What were you trying to do? I have tried to use this example for a cedar policy https://docs.cedarpolicy.com/policies/syntax-policy.html#term-parc-action

//matches any action in the hierarchy of the admin entity of type PhotoFlashRole
action in PhotoFlashRole::"admin"

When you write a policy like this you get an error like below:

expected an entity uid with the type `Action` but got `PhotoFlashRole::"admin"`. Action entities must have type `Action`

What is wrong and why? I can find no other reference to being able to define actions as children of Entities so I believe that this is a mistake in the docs.

What do we need to do to fix this? Edit: After some more testing, I think that the example needs to be changed to action in PhotoFlashRole::Action::"admin"

And a section should be added to the docs showing how you can supply actions as entities to create the hierarchy for policy evaluation.

Thanks for filing this issue! (And apologies for the delayed reply!) I've fixed the example you mentioned in #114.

However we still don't have examples for passing actions as entities in the input hierarchy (or mention of the fact that you don't need to do this with schema-based parsing), so I'll leave the issue open for now.
