Description

New Feature / Enhancement Checklist
Current Limitation

Introspection on the GraphQL API is not configurable

Feature / Enhancement Description

Add an graphQLIntrospection boolean option
But i think it's a better idea to just expose a field like "graphQLApolloServerOptions" to let the developper to fully customize the apollo server

Example Use Case
graphQLApolloServerOptions: {
   introspection: false,
   // Other apollo options or plugin, like depth limiting
}
Alternatives / Workarounds

None

Start by locating the Apollo Server configuration used by the GraphQL API and review how server options are currently passed. Done means agreeing on the supported configuration shape and verifying that introspection can be disabled without breaking other Apollo options.
