Try to generalize GraphQL startupJS approach

What does this MR do?

Refactor StartupJS for GraphQL

This refactors our StartupJS for GraphQL to be a Apollo Link 0 based application. Instead of manually filling the cache, we build an interceptor which "short-circuits" the Apollo Link pipeline in case the query can be found in StartupJS. In case the query fails, is not cached, has different variables, is done more than once, we skip it down the pipeline. Also if all Startup Queries have been done, it self-disables.
