Lanes
A horizontal lane of a board, such as Core metrics or Urgent, used to group cards across columns. Cards refer to the lane with lane_ref, which must be a lane of the card's board. A board without lanes gets one default lane, and a card without lane_ref goes to the first lane, that is the first record of the board. The lanes of a board keep the order of their records.
A record of this entity needs records of other entities in the package: Boards.
