UseStrictTypeChecking ContainerOption is ignored when using DefaultRepository.Specs

[GuyDigital]

Configuring a Repository ContainerOptions with .WithoutStrictTypeChecking() STILL appends type checking to specification queries

Reproducing The Issue

builder.Services.AddCosmosRepository(options => 
{
    options.ContainerBuilder.Configure<ExampleModel>(containerOptions => containerOptions
        .WithoutStrictTypeChecking()
        .WithContainer("Example")
        .WithPartitionKey("/id"));
};

public class ExampleSpecification : DefaultSpecification<ExampleModel>
{
    public ExampleSpecification() =>
        Query
            .Where(q => q.Category == "Red");
}

Main.cs

var queryResult = await _cosmosRepository.QueryAsync(new ExampleSpecification());

Console Logged Expected Query

"SELECT TOP 25 VALUE root FROM root WHERE (root[\"category\"] = \"Red\")"

Console Logged Actual Query

"SELECT TOP 25 VALUE root FROM root WHERE (((NOT IS_DEFINED(root[\"type\"])) OR (root[\"type\"] = \"ExampleModel\")) AND (root[\"category\"] = \"Red\"))"

In my case I need to retrieve all "Red" objects in the given collection as "ExampleModel"s, but all of my models are stored as type "OtherModel". The actual query requires "type" exactly match "ExampleModel" or is not defined. So when executed, the actual query does not retrieve anything.

Additional context This is the case since DefaultRepository.Specs uses DefaultRepositoryExpressionProvider.Default() which does not check UseStrictTypeChecking like Build() does for other DefaultRepository Operations.

To test, in DefaultRepository.Specs I replaced repositoryExpressionProvider.Default<TItem>() with repositoryExpressionProvider.Build<TItem>(_ => true) and produced the expected query. The popper way to fix this would probably be fixing Default() in the ExpressionProvider to work more similarly to Build().
