Description
This PR fixes the Open Connector Framework (OCF) to allow deeply nested virtual connections. This issue was uncovered by the PostgreSQL repository connector that uses a nested JDBC Resource Connector with a nested secrets connector.
The OCF's ConnectorBroker and the VirtualConnector beans were assuming a nested connection was a plain connection rather than a nested connection. This object is cast multiple times and any embedded virtual connection is lost.
