Support object/dynamic in SqlQueryValueAsync

I have a use case where I must query a dynamic database (columns might get added/removed by another system). I have a query generator that generates raw SQL queries.

I’d like to be able to do this:

var data = await _context.SqlQueryValueAsync<IEnumerable<object>>(query, cancellationToken: cancellationToken); or var data = await _context.SqlQueryValueAsync<IEnumerable<dynamic>>(query, cancellationToken: cancellationToken);

or

var data = await _context.SqlQueryValueAsync<object>(query, cancellationToken: cancellationToken); or var data = await _context.SqlQueryValueAsync<dynamic>(query, cancellationToken: cancellationToken);

Currently, I’m getting: System.NotSupportedException: Invalid operation, supplied type is not a value type

Provide steps to reproduce

Consider a query like this: SELECT TOP 100 * from dbo.Users; or SELECT name, surname, agefrom dbo.Users where id=1234;

Provide technical details

Searching over the net I found this: https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues/2344#issuecomment-172641417, but ideally, this should be added to this library.

• EF Core version in use: (e.g. EF Core 6)

• Is Handlebars used: no/yes

• Is .dacpac used: no/yes

• EF Core Power Tools version: (found in About dialog - blue questionmark icon on context menu)

• Database engine: (SQL Server, Azure SQL, Postgres, Oracle, Firebird, SQLite, MySQL)

• Visual Studio version: (e.g. Visual Studio 2022)

Could you please add link to EF Core issue for that?
