parent link is not required for any object #406

Closed philvarner closed 1 year ago

philvarner commented 1 year ago

In Features, the Items (/collections/{collectionId}/items/{itemId}) table states that "The following Link relations must exist in the Item object..." and has a row for parent. However, this is not the case. This was added by @philvarner after 1.0.0-rc.2 release, and just following the pattern established for the other link relations.

For all types (Catalog, Collection, Item), the parent link should be recommended, but not required.
