Request: accessCheck bool in public functions

Problem/Motivation

I would like this service to also check for nodes where i don't have access to. The use case is that there are scenario's where a user does not have access to all 'underlying' nodes but should still be able to read/update/delete the parent node.

So, i would like to propose that the referentialEntityQuery function accepts a new parameter (bool). This bool can be named 'checkAccess'.

In case of true

$query->condition($or_group)

$query->condition($or_group)
    ->accessCheck(FALSE);

Public functions would then also need to be altered:

public function hasDependents(EntityInterface $entity, [$checkAccess]);
public function getDependentEntities(EntityInterface $entity, [$checkAccess]);
public function getDependentEntityIds(EntityInterface $entity, [$checkAccess]);

Wondering if this is a valid use case for the maintainers of this module.

Personally I think the fact that accessCheck(TRUE) is used in EntityReferenceIntegrityEntityHandler::referentialEntityQuery() is a bug. I opened this issue to change it to accessCheck(FALSE): 🐛 Disable access checking in EntityReferenceIntegrityEntityHandler::referentialEntityQuery() Active

I'm going to close this in favor of that issue, if that's OK. I can't see any reason why someone would want an option to set accessCheck(TRUE), so I don't think we'll need to make this configurable.
