watchQuery with pollInterval ignores no-cache fetchPolicy

See original GitHub issue

Currently, when executing a watchQuery with a pollInterval and the fetchPolicy: 'no-cache' option, the caching option is overridden internally within Apollo to network-only, causing data to be written to the cache despite the no-cache fetch policy.

Intended outcome:

client.watchQuery({
  query,
  pollInterval: 1000,
  fetchPolicy: 'no-cache', // No objects should be written to the cache
}).valueChanges.subscribe(...);

Actual outcome: The cache .write() method is called with the results of the query

How to reproduce the issue: See ‘Intended outcome’ section
