User and Role ID should not have to be the same type

[Lukejkw]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
We use value objects for the key IDs of our user and role objects. However, registration requires these values to be the same type when making a call to AddIdentityMongoDbProvider

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice to be able to define the key types for the user and role separately rather than forcing them to be the same type.

 builder.Services
            .AddAuthorization()
            .AddIdentityMongoDbProvider<ApplicationUser, ApplicationRole, UserId>( // <--- It would be nice to be able to specify the ID types for user and role separately
                identityOptions => { identityOptions.SignIn.RequireConfirmedAccount = false; },
                mongoIdentityOptions =>
                {
                    mongoIdentityOptions.ConnectionString = builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("MongoDB");
                })
            .AddDefaultTokenProviders();

Describe alternatives you've considered

The alternative would be use the underlying type such as a Guid. However, you lose the strong typing of the value object. I'm also not sure registering a Guid serialiser for a nice readable guid currently works.

Example:

builder.Services
            .AddAuthorization()
            .AddIdentityMongoDbProvider<ApplicationUser, ApplicationRole, Guid>(
                identityOptions => { identityOptions.SignIn.RequireConfirmedAccount = false; },
                mongoIdentityOptions =>
                {
                    mongoIdentityOptions.ConnectionString = builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("MongoDB");
                })
            .AddDefaultTokenProviders();
            
BsonSerializer.RegisterSerializer(new GuidSerializer(BsonType.String));

hi @Lukejkw ,
not sure if it's still relevant, but I'll take a look.

usually you want consistent key type across application, but if someone requires it (and it's possible to implement) I believe we shoud support it.
