Upgrade the AliasClientDb EF model

To upgrade the AliasClientDb EF model, follow these steps:

1. Make changes to the AliasClientDb EF model in the AliasClientDb project.
2. Create a new migration by running the following command in the AliasClientDb project:

# Important: make sure the migration name is prefixed by the Semver version number of the release.
# For example, if the release version is 1.0.0, the migration name should be `1.0.0-<migration-name>`.
dotnet ef migrations add "1.0.0-<migration-name>"

4. On the next login of a user, they will be prompted (required) to upgrade their database schema to the latest version. Make sure to manually test that the migration works as expected.
