Describe the feature

If we want to move a custom list item to a folder within the list the IListItem does not have a method to Move()

Describe the solution you'd like

We need the IListItem to have a MoveTo() method similar to the IFile..

@mvcsharepointdev : technically speaking this is possible, it's just not implemented in PnP Core SDK. https://michelcarlo.com/2019/03/04/microsoft-flow-how-to-move-sharepoint-online-list-items-to-folders/ and it's comments contains some good pointers. If you need this urgently you can implement the needed API calls yourself using our custom API calling option (see https://pnp.github.io/pnpcore/using-the-sdk/basics-customapirequests.html#making-a-custom-spo-rest-request).

Let's add this request to the backlog for future addition.

@jansenbe I figured it out how this works, I can implement it during this or probably the next weekend.
