`gh api` raw data parameter
Describe the feature or problem you’d like to solve
I would like to pass a raw json body to gh api because the -f/-F interface feels very clunky to me
I'm not interested in converting it from json to some custom format, I would like to take the json from a query so I have the format, modify it, and send it back
It's frustrating and feels wrong that when looking at the github api documentation the curl examples are much easier to understand than the gh api examples
Process substitution(gh api ... --input <(echo "$data") or stdin(echo "$data" | gh api ... --input -) work, but they're annoying
Proposed solution
Add -d, --data <data>, like curl, for a normal json string body
