Pull request overview
Refactors multiple provider-specific method/member translators to avoid eager MethodInfo/MemberInfo reflection lookups (improving trimming compatibility and reducing startup reflection overhead), switching to name/declaring-type matching and argument-shape validation.
Changes:
- Replace static reflection-based
MethodInfo/MemberInfocaches withDeclaringType/Namechecks (often with list-pattern argument validation). - Convert many translators to primary-constructor style and remove backing
_sqlExpressionFactoryfields where possible. - Simplify/reshape some translation helpers (e.g., math/string translation dispatch via
switch).
