Description
### Please avoid duplicates
- [X] I checked [all open feature requests](https://github.com/gr2m/github-project/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3Afeature) and none of them matched my problem.
### What’s missing?
The ability to see the current fields configuration for a project.
### Why?
For my use case I need to list the available options for the built-in field `status` even if no items have that status set. Anyone who wants to discover how a project is configured would find the generally capability useful.
~This seems really to just be modifying `projectNodeToProperties()` to not include `fields` from `state`.~
~There could be confusion in doing this in regards to the `GitHubProject.fields` property when doing this which from my understanding is about mapping/remapping the fields given back for each item.~
_I ignorantly thought this was all fields in the project, not those just mapped through with options._
### Alternatives you tried
Could have written my own query but since everything was already loaded I just patched `projectNodeToProperties()`.
### Would you be interested in contributing the feature?
- [X] yes
