Enable GraphQL to Access Parent and Child Categories #30746

[DeanGonzalez]

User Story

When creating filter pages in a headless environment, sometimes it is necessary to pull all children of a category as it is done with this code in velocity:

    #foreach($con in $categories.getChildrenCategoriesByKey("INSERKEY"))
        ....
    #end

It would be very beneficial if there is a way in GraphQL to pull a parent and all children of a parent category.

Acceptance Criteria

One GraphQL query that returns both data on the Parent category and all child categories of that parent. This should also work for finding children of children using similar or same methodology.
