    # Class for easily building recursive CTE statements.
    #
    # Example:
    #
    #     cte = RecursiveCTE.new(:my_cte_name)
    #     ns = Arel::Table.new(:namespaces)
    #
    #     cte << Namespace.
    #       where(ns[:parent_id].eq(some_namespace_id))
    #
    #     cte << Namespace.
    #       from([ns, cte.table]).
    #       where(ns[:parent_id].eq(cte.table[:id]))
    #
    #     Namespace.with.
    #       recursive(cte.to_arel).
    #       from(cte.alias_to(ns))
