Potential Issue with Unchecked 'mutate' Key in mutate Method

### Description

Hello,

I want to report a potential issue in the `mutate` method that could affect the robustness of the code.

### Problem Description

The current implementation of the `mutate` method assumes the existence of the `mutate` key in the `$parameters` array without prior verification. This assumption could lead to an `Undefined index: mutate` error if the `$parameters` array is empty or does not contain this key.

Here is the relevant code snippet:

```php
public function mutate(array $parameters = [])
{
    $operations = [
        'created' => [],
        'updated' => [],
    ];

    foreach ($parameters['mutate'] as $parameter) {
        $operations[
            $this->mutateOperationsVerbose[$parameter['operation']]
        ][] = $this->applyMutation($parameter)->getKey();
    }

    return $operations;
}
```

### Impact

This can result in runtime errors, particularly in cases where the input parameters are malformed or incomplete, reducing the resilience of the application.

### Suggested Improvement

Adding a check to ensure the `mutate` key exists and is an array before accessing it would prevent this issue.

Thank you for considering this report.

Best regards, 

### Steps To Reproduce

Send POST with error in body

```
POST {{host}}api/entity/mutate/
content-type: application/json

{
  "mutate": [
    {
      "operation": "update",
      "key": 1,
      "relations": {
        "status": {
          "operation": "update",
          "key": 1, //<= wrong comma 
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}
```
