Description
How about specifying the primary key that has a different SQL column name than my property name?
I believe the following works:
```csharp
modelBuilder.Entity()
.HasKey(myEntity => myEntity.MyId);
modelBuilder.Entity()
.Property(p => p.MyId)
.HasColumnName("MyCustomColumnNameId");
```
I'm happy to update the docs with that pending confirmation it would be accepted?
