Apollo Uploads don't work correctly

See original GitHub issue

Library Version 1.4.2

Describe the bug Im using graphql-kotlin to build the schema for graphql-java (because I can’t switch to WebFlux at the moment). I’d like to use Apollo uploads but they don’t quite work. The schema is created correctly but the datafetcher throws at runtime.

The object passed to FunctionDataFetcher.convertParameterValue() already is of type ApplicationPart. It is passed to the jackson object mapper anyway. The object mapper then fails to deserialize the object.

https://github.com/ExpediaGroup/graphql-kotlin/blob/bd530a86049989206c946061172ab06b25e27728/graphql-kotlin-schema-generator/src/main/kotlin/com/expediagroup/graphql/execution/FunctionDataFetcher.kt#L86-L93

Code changed in master but has the same behavior:

https://github.com/ExpediaGroup/graphql-kotlin/blob/2259b9d9a23fd609952640bc7be2ee4a3906783d/graphql-kotlin-schema-generator/src/main/kotlin/com/expediagroup/graphql/execution/FunctionDataFetcher.kt#L74-L80

To Reproduce Provide graphql.servlet.core.ApolloScalars.Upload as a ScalarType with Java type org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationPart via SchemaGeneratorHooks. The correct Java type should be javax.servlet.http.Part but interfaces cannot be used as parameters. (Side question: why are interfaces forbidden for scalars?)

Create a mutation function that takes an ApplicationPart as a parameter.

Call the mutation, see https://github.com/jaydenseric/apollo-upload-examples

Expected behavior The Part object should not be deserialized but passed to the function directly. Maybe skip mapping if actual and desired type are the same?
