Jean-Baptiste Ronssin ff3f3d4661 fix(api): Allow deactivation of relation fields (#13202)
_(AI generated)_

### Summary

This PR fixes a validation bug in the GraphQL API that prevented
relation fields from being programmatically deactivated. The validation
was incorrectly triggering a "name cannot be changed" error even when
the update payload did not include a name, making it impossible to
disable the field.

Issue #13200 

### Problem

- The [updateOneField] mutation failed when trying to set `isActive:
false` on a `RELATION` field.
- The root cause was a validation check in
[FieldMetadataValidationService] that compared the incoming `name` with
the existing one. If the input `name` was `undefined`, the check
`undefined !== existingName` would incorrectly fail.
- This created a catch-22 where a field could not be deleted (because it
had to be deactivated first) and could not be deactivated (due to this
validation error).

### Solution

- The validation logic in [field-metadata-validation.service.ts] has
been updated to only check for a name change if a new name is
**explicitly provided** in the input
(`isDefined(fieldMetadataInput.name)`).
- This change correctly enforces the rule that relation field names
cannot be changed, while allowing other properties like `isActive` to be
updated without issue.

### How to Test

1.  Create a custom field of type `RELATION`.
2. Using the GraphQL API, call the [updateOneField] mutation with the
field's ID and the payload `{ "isActive": false }`.
3.  Verify that the mutation succeeds and the field is now inactive.
4.  Call the [deleteOneField] mutation to delete the field.
5.  Verify that the deletion is successful.

### Additional Changes

_to be deleted if not necessary_

- Added a new integration test
[successful-field-metadata-relation-update.integration-spec.ts] to cover
this specific use case and prevent future regressions. The existing test
for failing updates remains untouched and continues to pass.

Does the world need another CRM?

We built Twenty for three reasons:

CRMs are too expensive, and users are trapped. Companies use locked-in customer data to hike prices. It shouldn't be that way.

A fresh start is required to build a better experience. We can learn from past mistakes and craft a cohesive experience inspired by new UX patterns from tools like Notion, Airtable or Linear.

We believe in Open-source and community. Hundreds of developers are already building Twenty together. Once we have plugin capabilities, a whole ecosystem will grow around it.
