Summary0004713: Subject hierarchy hangs if script sets child item as parent of its parent
Description

It is possible to create invalid hierarchy that makes Slicer hang. For example:

shNode = slicer.vtkMRMLSubjectHierarchyNode.GetSubjectHierarchyNode(slicer.mrmlScene)
sceneItemID = shNode.GetSceneItemID()
mainfolder_ID = shNode.CreateFolderItem(sceneItemID, "Main Folder")
subfolder_ID = shNode.CreateFolderItem(sceneItemID, "Sub Folder")
shNode.SetItemParent(subfolder_ID,mainfolder_ID) # regular hiearchy setting
shNode.SetItemParent(mainfolder_ID, subfolder_ID) ## Makes slicer crash instead of returning an error

It would be better to check if the new parent is not a child of the item and return an error (there could be a flag in SetItemParent to bypass this safety check for performance-critical cases).

See https://discourse.slicer.org/t/placing-of-models-under-a-hiearchy/8587/2 for details.
