(react-hooks) prefer exported function instead of block-scoped variable

[dotansimha]

Summary

This PR changes the definition of React Hooks to use export function instead of export const. It's a simple change that allow developers later to interact better with the signature of the hooks.

In TS, these const are defined as block-scoped variables, and cannot be overwritten/redefined/overloaded by external TS libraries or consumers.

You can see a real-time example for that here , and it's also reported as issue

I'm working on a new plugin for https://github.com/dotansimha/graphql-code-generator , and I would like to extend urql behaviour with module augmentation - but at the moment it's not possible because of the way the hooks are defined.

Set of changes

Changed export const to be export function in all React Hooks.
