Yelp GraphQL API

Yelp exposes a GraphQL endpoint alongside its REST Fusion API, available at `https://api.yelp.com/v3/graphql`. The same bearer-token authentication used for the REST API applies here. The GraphQL surface mirrors the core Fusion REST capabilities — business search, business details, reviews, phone and address matching, events, autocomplete, and category taxonomy — but lets clients request exactly the fields they need in a single round trip.
