1. Deprecate apollo-server-testing; allow ASTs for executeOperation …

   The `apollo-server-testing` package exports one small function which is
   just a tiny wrapper around `server.executeOperation`. The one main
   advantage it provides is that you can pass in operations as ASTs rather
   than only as strings.
   
   This extra layer doesn't add much value but does require us to update
   things in two places (which cross a package barrier and thus can be
   installed at skewed versions). So for example when adding the second
   argument to `executeOperation` in #4166 I did not bother to add it to
   `apollo-server-testing` too. We've also found that users have been
   confused by the `createTestClient` API (eg #5111) and that some linters
   get confused by the unbound methods it returns (#4724).
   
   So the simplest thing is to just teach people how to use the real
   `ApolloServer` method instead of an unrelated API.
   
   This PR allows you to pass an AST to `server.executeOperation` (just
   like with the `apollo-server-testing` API), and changes the docs to
   recommend `executeOperation` instead of `apollo-server-testing`. It also
   makes some other suggestions about how to test Apollo Server code in a
   more end-to-end fashion, and adds some basic tests for
   `executeOperation`.
   
   Fixes #4952.
