Hillcrest-R-D/FORM

FORM is an F\# Object-Relational Mapper that provides a unified API for performing CRUD operations and managing transactions across multiple database providers, including PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, SQLite, and ODBC. It supports declarative schema mapping through attributes, handles relationship lookups, and ensures data safety via parameterized queries. The system includes built-in performance benchmarking and integration tests to validate its functionality and efficiency against standard data access libraries.

This change introduces the FORM library, an F\# Object Relational Mapper. It provides a unified API for interacting with multiple database providers, including PostgreSQL (via Npgsql), MySQL (via MySqlConnector), SQL Server, SQLite, and ODBC. Key capabilities include CRUD operations (select, insert, update, delete), explicit and implicit transaction management, and support for relationship lookups. The library also implements parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection and includes a configurable logging module.

The Attributes module now provides a comprehensive set of F\# attributes for mapping domain models to database schemas. Users can define table and column metadata using TableAttribute, ColumnAttribute, PrimaryKeyAttribute, and ConstraintAttribute, while relationship handling is supported via ForeignKeyAttribute and the new ByJoinAttribute/OnAttribute pair for specifying join logic. The module also introduces LazyAttribute for deferred loading, SQLTypeAttribute for custom SQL definitions, and UniqueAttribute for constraint grouping. Additionally, the OrmState type has been extended to include ODBC support alongside existing MSSQL, MySQL, PSQL, and SQLite providers, and the DbContext enum is now available for context-aware attribute configuration.

Added ORM integration tests for SQLite, PostgreSQL, and ODBC; Added performance benchmarking suite for ORM operations.

This change updates the .NET project files to target .NET 8.0 alongside existing targets (net6.0, net7.0) and refreshes several NuGet dependencies. Key updates include upgrading Microsoft.Data.SqlClient to 5.1.3, Microsoft.Extensions.Logging and its Console provider to 8.0.0, Npgsql to 8.0.1, and System.Data.Odbc to 8.0.0. The test project now uses Expecto 10.1.0 for testing, while retaining NUnit 3.13.3 and related tooling. The performance benchmarking project references BenchmarkDotNet 0.13.12 and Dapper 2.1.28.
