 In [changeset:"46184" 46184]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="46184"
 REST API: Support dot.nested hierarchical properties in _fields query
 parameter.

 Enable clients to opt-in to receipt of one or more specific sub-properties
 within a response, and not other sub-properties.
 Skip potentially expensive filtering and processing for post resources
 which were explicitly not requested.

 Props kadamwhite, TimothyBlynJacobs, dlh.
 Fixes #42094.
