Suggestion: Media.rankings could return a global rank alongside its MediaFormat counterparts.

Right now, when querying for rankings of a given Media, the result returns a list of rankings specific to that media format. This is fine, and can be helpful to dive down what the most popular or highest rated item is for a given media format. A rating for an OVA will almost always be overshadowed by a movie, so it makes sense to have them split.

Given that AniList can show the highest rated shows regardless of media type (i.e. https://anilist.co/search/anime?sort=SCORE_DESC without any format argument), could support be added to include a global ranking indifferent of its media format?

From a UX perspective, it feels weird seeing an OVA from Clannad (https://anilist.co/anime/6351/Clannad-Another-World-Kyou-Chapter/) look like it's more popular and highly rated than Boku no Hero Academia (https://anilist.co/anime/100166/My-Hero-Academia-Season-3/), even though I'm aware that they are rated by their media format.
