Previous behavior was to set the inverse of has_many objects as attributes.
This can be problematic in the case of attempting to serialize attributes
(think, infinite recursion). It is also different than how most other
relationship are expected to behave (i.e. saving them in the
Association@cached_data. This commit exposes Association#cached_data and
has the HasManyAssociation#fetch attempt to save the inverse relationship in
the cached_data if such a relationship/association is defined (most often
through the AssociationProxy.
