Support higher level constructs for AppSync

[hoegertn]

I propose the implementation of higher-level constructs for AppSync. Is this something that other people would find helpful?

Use Case

It would make implementing applications using AppSync easier than using the low-level objects.

Proposed Solution

This is subject to discussion. I am developing an AppSync application right now and would create higher-level constructs on the way if this is of interest.

@eladb @rix0rrr What do you think?

@shivlaks Any comment on this proposal? IF this is of interest I would push a first draft implementation this week. It is a preliminary result of my current AppSync application.

@hoegertn I was just going to share https://github.com/nestorstay/cdk-constructs/tree/master/constructs/appsync which is a very basic (but working) set of wrappers around Cfn for AppSync, currently with only DynDB datasource
support.

Would be great to get a @aws-cdk/cdk-appsync package, so my advise could be... don't ask for permission to submit... just submit and see what happens :)

@ranguard Ok, I will submit my work today as a WIP PR and then we can discuss it.
