Invalid SQL generated for migration if changing a column from null to not null
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DNET-707
                 URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/DNET-707
             Project: .NET Data provider
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Entity Framework support
    Affects Versions: 5.5.0.0
         Environment: Windows 7, VS 2015 Enterprise, EF 6.1.3, 
EntityFramework.Firebird 5.5.0, FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient 5.5.0, Firebird 
3.0.0.32485
            Reporter: Charles J Christie II
            Assignee: Jiri Cincura


I changed a column's type and null constraint during development of a new 
application. I found out later that Firebird doesn't support that through the 
ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN syntax, and that other options are available here: 
http://www.firebirdfaq.org/faq103/

Here's the line that was generated by migrations when I changed the data type 
on a property from Nullable<int> to long:

ALTER TABLE "Booklets" ALTER COLUMN "File_Size" TYPE BIGINT NOT NULL
;

Apparently, according to that page, all admin tools change the value on the 
system table. Maybe we should do that here too.
