Support external directives

See original GitHub issue

Currently, writing client-side documents with the @client directive yields various errors in VS Code:

In this example, setShowSignIn is marked as not found in the schema, and @client as unknown directive.

@frandiox : Sure, my intention was that if a valid AST is generated that means directive syntax is correct. What does your last attempt look like? I think it should be like

- directive @client on FIELD_DEFINITION

@divyenduz I see, I misunderstood the explanation. This works:- directive @client on FIELD 🎉

The only error remaining is that @client queries/mutations are still validated against the app “remote” schema instead of the local apollo-link-state. Therefore, a mutation like setLocalUser is not found on the remote type Mutation. I guess this requires some big changes.

Thanks for your patience!
