/**
 * Apply a cascade strategy on an association.  Used to apply Hibernate specific cascades.  For JPA cascading, prefer
 * using {@link javax.persistence.CascadeType} on {@link javax.persistence.OneToOne},
 * {@link javax.persistence.OneToMany}, etc.  Hibernate will merge together both sets of cascades.
