Accessing cached data outside hooks.

[omerman]

I think its crucial to access cached data, at least while mutating.

lets say I have 2 endpoints - api/users & api/user/<id>

say i update api/user/<id>, i do not want to invalidate api/users, I would just like to mutate it, something like this - mutate('api/users', [...usersWithoutModifiedUser, modifiedUser])

the problem is.. I can't get the cached value for api/users at the time of the mutation.. since I only have the single user data I'm modifying.

I was thinking mutation api should look something like this

mutate('api/users', (cachedData) => {
  ... // using the cached data to build the new cached data.
   return [...usersWithoutModifiedUser, modifiedUser];
})

Hope you understand my issue, looking forward hearing from you,
Thank you for the great lib.

I think the PR #245 implements what you need
