What is the current behavior?

Currently, when generating TypeScript definitions from GraphQL schema files, all type names are used as-is. This can lead to naming conflicts when you have similar type names across different domains (e.g., User database entity, User GraphQL type, UserDTO).

Issue Number: #3440

What is the new behavior?

Added a typeName option to DefinitionsGeneratorOptions that allows users to transform generated type names using a custom function.

Example usage:

definitionsFactory.generate({
  typePaths: ['./src/**/*.graphql'],
  path: './src/graphql.ts',
  typeName: (name) => `${name}Schema`
})

This will transform:

• User → UserSchema
• CreateUserInput → CreateUserInputSchema
• UserRole → UserRoleSchema

Root types (Query, Mutation, Subscription) remain unchanged as IQuery, IMutation, ISubscription.

Does this PR introduce a breaking change?

• Yes
• No

This is my first contribution to the NestJS GraphQL project. I've carefully studied the codebase and followed the existing patterns to implement this feature. Open to any feedback for improvements.
