Research direction

Start with the linked Azure Cosmos DB unique-keys documentation, then trace the Cosmos provider's container configuration and EF model alternate-key metadata. Done means supporting container creation when the alternate key includes the partition key and all entity types sharing a container use the same key; the issue names no files or tests, so the relevant entry points must first be located.

For a unique key to be created in the container the EF model must have an alternate key on an entity type that includes the partition key and all entity types sharing the container must have the same key.
