delegateRequest in v8 ignores the from the options

[JonasDoe]

I'm using @graphql-tools/delegate@8.4.3 and don't understand the why IDelegateRequestOptions.context is ignored when delegating a request. Instead, now I've got to set my context at the ExecutionRequest I'm passing in the options as well:

delegateRequest({
    request: { ... newRequest, ...{context: requestCtx} }, // myContext will be used, e.g. will be available in my execution function.
    context: myContext, // myContext will be ignored
    ....
}) 

In v7 the behavior was different. Is this a bug, or what's the point of these two different contexts?
