[RFC] Expand GraphQL language

This proposes merging the schema language into the GraphQL language.

After some time of thinking about this, I believe this is the best path. There is only one "GraphQL language" and thus only one spec for a parser. I believe this will have substantial simplification forces on GraphQL server libs and client tools and the APIs they expose. This also means the validation phase can be designed to accept both "client GraphQL" and "server GraphQL" rather than two separate utilities with two separate AST and rule structures. Instead we're just likely to want to introduce standard rule sets for each environment.

The drawback is explaining the semantics. This diff primarily adds type definition syntax to GraphQL, and it should be made clear that *at present* GraphQL servers do not have semantics for these and in fact will not execute queries which contain them.
