Pull request overview
Adds a release-note entry to EF Core 11.0 “What’s New” documenting the new SQL post-processing that removes redundant (no-op) CAST expressions, motivated by dotnet/efcore#36247.
Changes:
- Document EF Core 11 behavior to detect and strip no-op SQL
CASTexpressions. - Provide before/after SQL examples demonstrating the generated SQL change.
- Explain the performance motivation (avoiding unnecessary work and improving index usage).
