Description

When creating a SQLModel class instance, I thought that I'd have all the advantages of pydantic and SQLAlchemy classes toghether.
I was quite surprised when I realized that SQLModel classes created with table=True do not validate data as a pydantic class would do (see my example code).
Having read about all SQLModel documentation, I didn't find anywhere this is stated.
Especially in https://sqlmodel.tiangolo.com/tutorial/fastapi/multiple-models/ it would make sense to explain that a table=True won't do data validation as a pydantic class would do.

Maybe I did not understand the purpose of SQLModel enough, but this is quite disturbing for me.
I think it would be really nice to update the documentation regarding this particular point.

                              Having read about all SQLModel documentation, I didn't find anywhere this is stated.
                              Especially in https://sqlmodel.tiangolo.com/tutorial/fastapi/multiple-models/ it would make sense to explain that a table=True won't do data validation as a pydantic class would do.

                              Maybe I did not understand the purpose of SQLModel enough, but this is quite disturbing for me.
                              I think it would be really nice to update the documentation regarding this particular point.

                              PS: Sorry, I'm comming here from Tortoise-ORM, and it's my first time using SQLModel, so I cannot guarantee that I will be quite helpful resolving issues here yet ;) I'll do my best.
