Include the coverage data in the data returned by the recent call

[szabgab]

In the code generating the CPAN Digger first I call $mcpan->recent and then on every release I call $mcpan->cover($release->name); If I understand correctly this will generate as many API requests as releases I fetch. (Which is now 200).

Is there a way to get the cover data already in the first call together with the other data of the recently uploaded releases?

cover is a separate index which will require some work on the API level to open for raw querying. I will try working on that during PTS.

This is a classic use-case for GraphQL.

@mohawk2 Is there a GraphQL API for MetaCPAN or are you saying it should have one?
