class GraphQL::Relay::Mutation

Define a Relay mutation:

- give it a name (used for derived inputs & outputs)
- declare its inputs
- declare its outputs
- declare the mutation procedure

`resolve` should return a hash with a key for each of the `return_field`s

Inputs may also contain a `clientMutationId`

@example Updating the name of an item

UpdateNameMutation = GraphQL::Relay::Mutation.define do
  name "UpdateName"

  input_field :name, !types.String
  input_field :itemId, !types.ID

  return_field :item, ItemType

  resolve -> (inputs, ctx) {
    item = Item.find_by_id(inputs[:id])
    item.update(name: inputs[:name])
    {item: item}
  }
end

MutationType = GraphQL::ObjectType.define do
  # The mutation object exposes a field:
  field :updateName, field: UpdateNameMutation.field
end

# Then query it:
query_string = %|
  mutation updateName {
    updateName(input: {itemId: 1, name: "new name", clientMutationId: "1234"}) {
      item { name }
      clientMutationId
  }|

 GraphQL::Query.new(MySchema, query_string).result
 # {"data" => {
 #   "updateName" => {
 #     "item" => { "name" => "new name"},
 #     "clientMutationId" => "1234"
 #   }
 # }}
