[Feature] Disable a graphql filter if the variable is not set

Comienza rastreando el manejo de filtros GraphQL de graph-node para las variables omitidas y compáralo con el comportamiento de la API pública mostrado en los dos ejemplos de curl. Se considerará terminado cuando una variable omitida desactive su filtro en lugar de producir una condición de igualdad con null, y el comportamiento de la consulta de ejemplo tenga cobertura de pruebas.

Description

Hi, I was running a graph-node of the latest stable version (v0.33.0), and an example-subgraph. After that, I was trying to request entities with GraphQL query like:

curl 'http://127.0.0.1:9000/subgraphs/name/example' \
  -H 'Accept-Language: zh-CN,zh;q=0.9,en;q=0.8' \
  -H 'Connection: keep-alive' \
  -H 'Origin: http://127.0.0.1:9000' \
  -H 'Referer: http://127.0.0.1:9000/subgraphs/name/example/graphql' \
  -H 'Sec-Fetch-Dest: empty' \
  -H 'Sec-Fetch-Mode: cors' \
  -H 'Sec-Fetch-Site: same-origin' \
  -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/117.0.0.0 Safari/537.36' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, multipart/mixed' \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'sec-ch-ua: "Google Chrome";v="117", "Not;A=Brand";v="8", "Chromium";v="117"' \
  -H 'sec-ch-ua-mobile: ?0' \
  -H 'sec-ch-ua-platform: "macOS"' \
  --data-raw '{"query":"query MyQuery($id: ID) {\n  gravatars(first: 10, where: {id: $id}) {\n    id\n  }\n}","variables":{},"operationName":"MyQuery","extensions":{"headers":null}}' \
  --compressed

For more clarity, we define a filter variable id but leave it alone without setting any value.

query MyQuery($id: ID) {
  gravatars(first: 10, where: {id: $id}) {
    id
  }
}

In this case, the graph-node returns me nothing, looking like it takes the variable id as null, and queries the Postgres with the filter condition to check if id is equal to null.

Interestingly, while I was trying to simulate a similar action in our thegraph endpoint api.thegraph.com, even I didn't set any variables for id or symbol, the server would still response all entries regarding these filter variables as disabled.

curl 'https://api.thegraph.com/subgraphs/name/graphprotocol/compound-v2' \
  -H 'authority: api.thegraph.com' \
  -H 'accept: */*' \
  -H 'accept-language: zh-CN,zh;q=0.9,en;q=0.8' \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'origin: https://api.thegraph.com' \
  -H 'referer: https://api.thegraph.com/subgraphs/name/graphprotocol/compound-v2' \
  -H 'sec-ch-ua: "Google Chrome";v="117", "Not;A=Brand";v="8", "Chromium";v="117"' \
  -H 'sec-ch-ua-mobile: ?0' \
  -H 'sec-ch-ua-platform: "macOS"' \
  -H 'sec-fetch-dest: empty' \
  -H 'sec-fetch-mode: cors' \
  -H 'sec-fetch-site: same-origin' \
  -H 'user-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/117.0.0.0 Safari/537.36' \
  --data-raw '{"operationName":"markets","variables":{},"query":"query markets($id: ID, $symbol: String) {\n  markets(first: 7, where: {id: $id, symbol: $symbol}) {\n    id\n    symbol\n  }\n}\n"}' \
  --compressed

So, what is the main cause for this difference of GraphQL filter behavior between graph-node binary and our public api endpoint? Is it possible for graph-node to conform with the same behavior (disable a graphql filter if the variable is not set)?
