Add the ability to modify base URI for 1st party shopify apps #1235

For 1st party Shopify apps that use the API library, adding the ability to use the internal domain vs public domain can reduce latency by 80ms by avoiding the public internet for API calls.

If we modified the base_uri in our http client, we'd need to make sure the session's shop worked well with unified admin domains and legacy patterns. We'd need to validate this change by testing with 3rd party and 1st party applications before releasing.
