Make optional arguments for Stored Procedures optional in the generated .NET method

Provide steps to reproduce

I have a stored procedure defined as follows:

create procedure dbo.SpMapGet(
	@NodeId int,
	@Debug int = null
) as begin
     // ...
end

When I create the model for this using the version detailed below, the generated method has the following signature:

public virtual async Task<TResult> SpMapGetAsync(
    int? NodeId,
    int? Debug,
    OutputParameter<int> returnValue = null,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
{
    // ...
}

What I would like to see is Debug becoming an optional parameter there, too, just like in the SQL statement:

public virtual async Task<TResult> SpMapGetAsync(
    int? NodeId,
-    int? Debug,
+    int? Debug = null,
    OutputParameter<int> returnValue = null,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
{
    // ...
}

Is this something that you would consider implementing?

Thanks for looking into this, @ErikEJ. It’s a pitty, there’s no info about this.
