[bug]: Populate multiple levels not working as expected

[douwepausma]

Bug Description

At first I thought I need to use an array to populate much like the other Strapi API's, but when I hover the populate attribute (see the picture at expected behavior) I noticed I need to use an object. However it only works when ik go no further than 1 level.

This works

const results = await strapi.collection('pages').find({
        populate: {
            seo: true
        }
});

But this doesn't

const results = await strapi.collection('pages').find({
        populate: {
            seo: {
                metaImage: true
            }
        }
});

Steps to Reproduce

Try and fetch entries with a populate level deeper than 1.

const results = await strapi.collection('pages').find({
        populate: {
            seo: {
                metaImage: true
            }
        }
});

Expected Behavior

To populate multiple levels.
