Description

The BOM functionality should be improved to handle virtual product variant/feature selections. Such functionality would allow for something such as GZ-OUTER-BASKET of selected features to contain 3 GZ-INNER-BASKETs of different selected features

I think the BOMNode class should contain a List<BOMNode>variantNodes member to be used for virtual nodes in the loadChildren function. When virtual variants exist, the virtual node childrenNodes can be unset since the nodes will be contained in the variantNodes instead.

I disovered the need for such functionality while trying to implement OFBIZ-5420 and OFBIZ-5437.
