Description

It appears that the postgres 'interval' type isn't considered a base type, so it's not possible for it to be returned as a computed field.

Research direction
Investigate how base types are defined in the Hasura GraphQL Engine codebase. Look for files such as 'src rsr' or 'server/src' that register scalar types. Check issue comments and any existing PRs for clues. The task is to add 'interval' to the list of base types that can be returned as computed fields.
