AsNoTracking before Select throws argument exception

[zmerdev]

I am updating some projects to .Net10 EFCore 10 and Projectables 6 from .Net8 EFCore8 Projectables3, and hit this bug after changing the projectables version to 6.0.6.

If you call AsNoTracking() before selecting/projecting to a DTO or an anonymous type, the query throws argument exception.

Repro:

Any entity with a settable projectable (the #84 feature) will do:

public class Entity
{
    public int Id { get; set; }

    [Projectable(UseMemberBody = nameof(_ComputedWithBacking))]
    [NotMapped]
    public int ComputedWithBacking { get; set; }

    private int _ComputedWithBacking => Id * 5;
}

db.Set<Entity>()
    .AsNoTracking()
    .Select(e => new { e.ComputedWithBacking })
    .ToList();

Will throw

System.ArgumentException : Expression of type 'System.Linq.IQueryable`1[<>f__AnonymousType5`1[System.Int32]]'
cannot be used for parameter of type 'System.Linq.IQueryable`1[Entity]' of method
'System.Linq.IQueryable`1[Entity] Select[Entity,Entity](...)' (Parameter 'arg0')

Same thing with new SomeDto { ... } instead of an anonymous type. Without the AsNoTracking() it works fine. Re-ordering so AsNoTracking is after the Select also works.

What's going on:

ProjectableExpressionReplacer uses _disableRootRewrite to decide whether to append the Select<TEntity, TEntity> that populates settable projectables. A Select sets it to true, but since #132 AsNoTracking sets it back to false. The visitor walks the tree outside in, so for

db.Set<Entity>().AsNoTracking().Where(...).Select(e => new Dto { ... })

the Select is visited first and the AsNoTracking last, so the rewrite gets turned back on and appended to an IQueryable<Dto>, which throws an error.

Fix

Check out my PR (placeholder for PR when i make it). I'm not super familiar with this repo and used AI to help fix this bug. However I ran all the existing tests and they passed as well as adding tests for the bug I fixed.

Repro project. Shared repro with #224 The repro shows both issues not present in version 3, but now present in version 6.
