Return created/updated objects

Overview

The API itself will already return the full object if you do a create/update operation. However, the library swallows this response here:
https://github.com/Shopify/shopify-php-api/blob/0556edf274ceb83346533bd22b662d7622e58c66/src/Rest/Base.php#L60-L74

Solution

Adding return $response->getDecodedBody(); at the end of the function should suffice. Note that the saveAndUpdate function would also need to be updated, with return $this->save(true);. Implementation can be found in my fork: https://github.com/MagicLegend/shopify-php-api/commit/d43bc94601dabae8135cd1c35b5f4af3e1fdac23

Motivation

What inspired this feature request? What problems were you facing?

I would like to verify the saved object myself, without needing to query the API again for data that was already returned in the first place. This also allows immediate access to the ID of the newly created object.

Start with src/Rest/Base.php at lines 60-74 and trace the saveAndUpdate function. Use the linked fork commit as a reference, then verify that create/update operations and saveAndUpdate expose the API's returned object, including access to the decoded response and newly created ID.
