Add `ReplaceDataFlow()` method for `DataTableDataSourceOperations` class

In IronPython API, DataSourceOperations class has the ReplaceDataFlow() method which allows Data Table replacement without affecting downstream Data Transformation steps, similar to manually replacing in Data Canvas (i.e., click on table > Replace data source).


This method is not available for DataTableDataSourceOperations class; it has the ReplaceData() method, which removes all downstream Data Transformation steps.


Having to re-add the deleted Data Transformation steps is tedious.

    Hi Ivan, thank you for contributing. I have a little problem understanding the idea. Do you want an API for changing data table in DataTableDataSourceOperation? And that such call would not affect any downstream transformation steps?
