Preserve order when generating TypeScript definitions

Currently each time the CLI is executed, the TypeScript definitions come out the same, which is correct, but the order of the definitions is not kept constant.

I’d like to propose some type of ordering which keeps the generated file the same, unless some of the definitions actually changed.

Config used when testing this:

schema: "http://localhost:8080/graphql"
documents: "src/**/*.{ts,tsx}"
generates:
  src/gql-types.ts:
    plugins:
      - "typescript"
      - "typescript-operations"
config:
 skipTypename: true
 declarationKind: 'interface'```

Prettier won’t change the order of type declarations or properties. It’s pretty annoying that things like the Scalars can change order when generating types from an updated schema that didn’t change anything close to them.

I would kind of expect the types to always be generated in the order they are specified in the schema.

Could you try with the alpha versions here;
