Description

Currently the only way to rename types in a schema is not import them, but create a new type and copy the fields. It would be very useful if one could do:

`# import House as Home from './mySchema.graphql'`

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the schema import parser and its handling of type definitions, then trace how imported names are resolved. Done means supporting `import House as Home from './mySchema.graphql'` while preserving the imported fields under the renamed type.
