PropertyWrapper: CustomKeyCodable allows defining the keys for decoding _per property_

CustomKeyCodable.swift

Usage.swift

// Note: All properties must be marked with `@Key`
// provide a value if you are specifying a key, otherwise you can omit it

struct User: CustomKeyCodable {
    @Key("first_name") var firstName: String
    @Key("last_name") var lastName: String
    @Key var age: Int

    init() { }
}

let json = Data(#"{"first_name":"Ian", "last_name": "Keen", "age":42}"#.utf8)

var model = try! JSONDecoder().decode(User.self, from: json)
print(model.firstName) // Ian
print(model.lastName) // Keen
print(model.age) // 42

try print(String(data: JSONEncoder().encode(model), encoding: .utf8)!)
//{"age":42,"first_name":"Ian","last_name":"Keen"}

model.lastName = "Smith"
model.age = 123
try print(String(data: JSONEncoder().encode(model), encoding: .utf8)!)
//{"age":123,"first_name":"Ian","last_name":"Smith"}
