References the PartRelations that are valid inserts for this ModularSlot.

This reference points to PartRelations in order to allow referencing indirectly a PartVersion if the description of individual PartVersions is done with one physical VEC file per PartVersion and to allow the expression of optional inserts, choices etc. However, inserts for a ModularSlot are always ConnectorHousings by itself. Therefore, the referenced PartVersion shall have a PrimaryPartType = ConnectorHousing
