Description
When implementing a custom inspectdb command by inheriting from inspectdb.Command users should be able to override the table name to model conversion logic.
Public method for column names already exists: https://github.com/django/django/blob/00f5d2d110712af84fae2c5f9183a2ea48ce0a4a/django/core/management/commands/inspectdb.py#L265
This would allow overriding the default behaviour of command in a custom inspectdb, for example when table names are already PascalCase (i.e. schema.FooBarBuzz), etc. With default implementation, it will be converted into class SchemaFoobarbuzz(models.Model).

Sounds reasonable, this should also allow folks to fix previously rejected ticket on their own, e.g. #31847.

Seems like a valid request 👍
✔️ small & isolated refactor
✔️ no behaviour change
✔️ aids extendability
✔️ more consistent
✔️ PR already in place
Accepting :) (though it may still be rejected by someone else)
