Description

Description

As the title suggests, allow for both pruned and unpruned versions to be live simultaneously.

This means I have Subgraph X which will be living in two different forms - pruned and unpruned.
The most important thing needs to be that both should be accessible based on query needs, simultaneously.

If the block/data range queried falls inside the pruned version range, send queries to it.
If not, send the historical queries to the unpruned version.

This has to be done with zero input from the infrastructure operator.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing the existing query-routing and subgraph version-selection entry points, then determine how block ranges can select between pruned and unpruned versions. Done means both versions remain accessible simultaneously, with routing based on the queried range and no infrastructure-operator input.
