Featured product "tax_query" argument overwritten

[lstellway]

Describe the bug When querying "featured" products in a category product connection, the tax_query argument is overwritten.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Setup WooCommerce store with products and WPGraphQL extensions
2. Mark a single item as featured
3. Query the category products, with a featured filter

query GetProducts {
  productCategory(idType:SLUG, id:"uncategorized") {
    products(where: {
      featured:true
    }) {
      nodes {
        name
      }
    }
  }
}

Expected behavior Only the featured item should appear.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: OSX
• Browser: Postman

Additional context The issue occurs somewhere between class-products.php::$resolve_product_from_taxonomy() and class-product-connection-resolver.php::set_query_arg().

I'm curious if the logic in class-product-connection-resolver.php::set_query_arg() is correct. Should the $overwrite variable in the if statement have a ! (bang) in front of it? I would think so, so the tax_query is appended to instead of overwritten.

It sounds like this logic is going to be refactored (reference). Here's a patch in case anyone is running into the same issue and wants a temporary fix:

I am experiencing this again - (my patch became obsolete after updating).

The tax_query argument is set when products are resolved. When stepping through the code with xdebug, the referenced statement was used to filter the category.

Because of this statement, I cannot filter "featured" products, which relies on the tax_query parameter.

Removing the old WPGraphQL\WooCommerce\Data\Connection\Product_Connection_Resolver::set_query_arg() method causes the entire tax_query argument to be overwritten.

To fix for myself, I have created another patch, placing the old function back:
