__typename isn't added automatically to queries that use __type(

[happylinks]

Intended outcome: GraphQL queries that use type( should also get the typename added to them automatically. Correct query should be:

query getLanguages {
    languages: __type(name: "DefaultLanguage") {
        name
        __typename
        enumValues {
            name
            __typename
        }
   }
}

Actual outcome: When you have a query like:

query getLanguages {
    languages: __type(name: "DefaultLanguage") {
        name
        enumValues {
            name
        }
    }
}

The __typename will not be added in the correct places. (see first query) This causes persisted queries to not work anymore for these specific queries; it will not find the query in the query map.

How to reproduce the issue: Check it here: https://codesandbox.io/s/voxg0yAnm

1. Make a query which uses __type in it.
2. Check which query is being send to the server. (network tab)
3. The __typename is not sent.

Temporary solution: Add typename to the type queries yourself.

I'm keeping it alive for now. Will probably pick it up myself when I have the time. (Any hints would be nice though)
