Add support for GroupJoin + SelectMany (INNER JOIN) and GroupJoin + SelectMany + DefaultIfEmpty (LEFT JOIN) patterns. Uses CTE-based SQL generation so each document table retains the standard "d" alias, then joins the CTEs in a final SELECT with jsonb_build_object projection. Includes support for duplicated fields in join keys and projections, Count/First aggregation after joins, and VitePress documentation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
