This NuGet package Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.HealthChecks.EntityFrameworkCore version 7.0.x only supports NET 7.0

But...
Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.HealthChecks 7.0.x supports NET Standard 2.0, 4.6.2, and 7.0
Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.HealthChecks.Abstractions 7.0.x supports NET Standard 2.0, and 4.6.2
Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.* 7.0.x supports NET 6.0

Describe the solution you'd like

If the item being health checked, EntityFrameworkCore 7.0.x, supports NET 6.0, and the 2 NuGet packages for Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.HealthChecks listed above support 6.0 by supporting Standard 2.0, then shouldn't this package support NET 6, instead of just NET 7.0?

I have EntityFrameworkCore 7.0.x working fine on NET 6.0, and using HealthChecks NuGets 6.0.x.
And it works fine, but I should really be able to update the Hea;lthChecks NuGets to 7.0.x
When I update Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.HealthChecks and Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.HealthChecks.Abstractions to 7.0.x and have to leave Microsoft.Extensions.Diagnostics.HealthChecks.EntityFrameworkCore on 6.0.x I get a run time exception.

@javiercn I don't think we own this. It is shipped out of the ASP.NET Core repo: https://github.com/dotnet/aspnetcore/tree/main/src/Middleware/HealthChecks.EntityFrameworkCore

Moving to web-frameworks since it's health checks.

@bakgerman Unfortunately we do not support this at the moment and making the changes will require a lot of work. Would you be able to upgrade your runtime to 7.0.x ?
