"Maximum recursive updates exceeded" with larger data sets

[martyf]

Bug description

With certain data sets - such as nested replicators with many Link fieldtypes - throws an exception in the console, and stops the page from loading. The progress bar remains visible, and the page cannot be interacted with (i.e. save is disabled):

Uncaught (in promise) Maximum recursive updates exceeded. This means you have a reactive effect that is mutating its own dependencies and thus recursively triggering itself. Possible sources include component template, render function, updated hook or watcher source function.

How to reproduce

Repo:
https://github.com/martyf/statamic-recursion

Run your composer install and php please make:user and log in. Head to the Pages collection.

In the Pages collection you will see entries "Recursion - 1" to "Recursion - 5". 1-4 are OK, but 5 throws the error in the console.

This is mirroring a similar setup in a project that has nested replicators and many links, so a real-world project identified this issue.
