Remarks
This method saves a serialized workflow to the SysWorkflowTable table and the SysWorkflowInstanceTable table.
The serialized workflow is stored as data in container. Therefore, the SysWorkflowTable table has been transformed to improve performance. The SysWorkflowTable table contains the data that is frequently accessed by the system, and the SysWorkflowInstanceTable contains the container data. For create method, update method, and the delete method, the tables are treated as a single table.
