URL param to ensure docs panel displays?

Sorry it took long to respond! I'd like to revisit this.
I think this would be a good-to-have feature, enabling GraphiQL to be a source of documentations as well. To start it'd be great if the doc explorer (via GraphiQL props) would accept props to specify the initial status (e.g. isOpen and an entry to display). This way at the GraphiQL installation this 'status' could be determined and passed into GraphiQL components.

Currently, there doesn't appear to be, it is just a part of state and doesn't read from props to determine if it should start open:

The other interesting part of the code would be where it determines if the DocExplorer should be open.
