A Helper class to capture naming conventions of databases.

While databases have a mechanism to identify Primary Keys, some don't use it.

However there is often a naming convention that makes it obvious that a column is a PK.

Extend the methods of this class to help DBvolution automatically recognize the PKs within your schema.
