[5.x]: GraphQL introspection schema gets larger after merging entries

[cornedor]

What happened?

Description

Our GraphQL introspection schema is very big after upgrading. Since the merge tools are now available, I tried to merge two entries to see how much that would change the size. But instead of getting smaller, the schema increased in size.

Steps to reproduce

1. Note the size of the introspection schema
2. Merge two entries
3. Note the size of the introspection schema

Expected behavior

Introspection schema reduces in size since there are fewer entries.

Actual behavior

Introspection schema size increases. For example, after merging 3 identical entries with 5 fields, from 40,83MB to 41,38MB

That could maybe be expected if the persisting entry type has more fields than it used to, but definitely seems a little odd.
