Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/atulmy/gql-query-builder/issues/72

The gql.query function takes an optional config object in which I can pass an operationName to name my query. This makes testing queries against a mock GQL server using MSW very easy as I can configure it to respond to incoming queries by the operationName https://mswjs.io/docs/getting-started/mocks/graphql-api#request-handler

The gql.mutation function doesn't take this config object so I can't easily name mutations. This makes testing them with MSW much harder as I have to separately parse the GQL into an AST and locate the name of the underlying mutation that is called.

Could you add this config object to gql-query-builder?

@atulmy I've submitted a PR for this issue. We are hoping to use this package but the operationName for mutations is a hard requirement as we're using MSW too.
