🐛 Using static call in entity classes will result in TypeError

What happened?

Using constructs like new static will result in TypeError when the entities are proxied.

This is expected behaviour, but in reality people could accidentally forget it. So if we have an entity like:

class Post
{
    public ?string $title = null;
    public ?string $body = null;

    public function duplicate(string $newTitle): static
    {
        $self = new static();
        $self->title = $newTitle;
        $self->body = $this->body;

        return $self;
    }
}

If this post is loaded as part of a parent's relation, it's going to be a cycle proxy object, not an actual class. in that case calling $parent->post->duplicate('Some new title') would effectively crash.
