Description
`apollo client:codegen` Global types generation seems to overwrite previous runs of global file generation even if it's in the same command.
**Intended outcome:**
A single global types file with all the types is generated
**Actual outcome:**
A single global types file is generated with only some of the types (from either only the .ts or only the .tsx files)
**How to reproduce the issue:**
- Create some queries and mutations across a selection of ts and tsx files. Make sure that there are complex/non-scalar types in the queries and mutations. Normally these types would be put in the globalTypes.ts
- Run `apollo client:codegen --includes=./**/*.{ts,tsx} --target=typescript --endpoint= --header=""`
- Note that not all the types are in the globalTypes.ts file. Only the types from one of the sets of ts or tsx files exists in this file.
**Versions**
2.28.0

Research direction
Start by running the reported apollo client:codegen command with queries and mutations in both .ts and .tsx files, then trace the globalTypes.ts generation path. Done means one global types file contains the non-scalar types from both file sets, with a regression test covering the combined include pattern.
