TODO

• Support is needed for modelBuilder.HasDefaultSchema() to override the default schema name of empty string.
• DbContext.Database.Exists(), DbContext.Database.Delete(), and DbContext.Database.Create() is a no-operation.
• LINQ support is limited. There is very limited support for .First(), .Top(), Skip(), Take(), etc.
• Database migrations, especially column migrations is limited.
