My test case ended up being pretty complex but I got it working in the end. Note it was a bit annoying to have to manually add the YAML for my seed (lightdash generate only works for models). |

Seeds are now included in the compilation pipeline so they can be used
as join targets from models, eliminating the need for wrapper models
that just `SELECT * FROM {{ ref('seed') }}`. Seeds are compiled as
tables for join resolution but do not create standalone explores.
