Select property by name & set a converter using Fluent Mapping

See original GitHub issue

How can I use FluentMappingBuilder or EntityMappingBuilder to select a property by name (and optionally by type) and set a converter to like Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Metadata.Builders.EntityTypeBuilder does.

builder.Property("propertyName").HasConversion(personalDataConverter);
builder.Property(typeof(string), "propertyName").HasConversion(personalDataConverter);
builder.Property<string>("propertyName").HasConversion(personalDataConverter);

per-column converters for both attribute-based and fluent mappings will be available in next release https://github.com/linq2db/linq2db/wiki/Release-Notes-3.0.0#value-converters-2273

I think it covers remaining items from this issue
