* Improve documentation for collection associations This commit makes `Evaluator#association` and `Evaluator#instance` officially part of the public API of factory\_bot. Folks were already using these methods, and all of the examples here were inspired by examples in the various issues mentioned below. This commit also adds and updates some tests to match the examples in the documentation, to ensure that these examples will continue to work as expected. Closes #1268 by adding documentation for both `Evaluator#association` and `Evaluator#instance`. The documentation on interconnected associations is also relevant to #1063, #1255, and #1309. Closes #1304 by providing multiple alternative approaches to creating collection associations, and adding a note about reloading the record in the callback example. This had also come up back in #549. Closes #458 by offering `Evaluator#association` as a more flexible way to build collection associations. This has come up many times over the years in many different forms, including #426, #487, #640, #1022, #1150, and #1360. |
