Add a constraint to the query. This is mainly used internally for compiling constraints.
 @example
  # add where :field equals "value"
  query.add_constraint(:field.eq, "value")

  # add where :like_count is greater than 20
  query.add_constraint(:like_count.gt, 20)

  # same, but ignore field formatting
  query.add_constraint(:like_count.gt, 20, filter: false)

 @param operator [Parse::Operator] an operator object containing the operation and operand.
 @param value [Object] the value for the constraint.
 @param opts [Object] A set of options. Passing :filter with false, will skip field formatting.
