Options param in SequelizeRepository create methods issue

[Akanksha13-dev]

Describe the bug

options = { fields: { privateKey: false, publicKey: false, }, };

const result = await this.certificatesRepository.create( certificate, this.options, ); when we pass this.option param in create method getting error options.attributes.map is not a function. But working for findById.

I tested this one and it looks like you can pass an array of strings for the field names:

const result = await this.certificatesRepository.create(
certificate,
  {
    fields: [ "a", "b", "c" ]
  }
);

The loopback-style syntax would require the "fields" to be remapped here: https://github.com/loopbackio/loopback-next/blob/56201c5505a4e5b5b67022c02c98356a4b864862/extensions/sequelize/src/sequelize/sequelize.repository.base.ts#L170-L176

For example (note that the existing buildSequelizeAttributeFilter has a Typescript interface conflict with the create parameters):

  async create(entity: DataObject<T>, options?: AnyObject): Promise<T> {
    const data = await this.sequelizeModel.create(
      entity as MakeNullishOptional<T>,
      {
        ...options,
        fields: this.buildSequelizeAttributeFilter(options?.fields),
      },
    );
    return new this.entityClass(data.toJSON()) as T;
  }
