Generic object responses should use 'any` and not generate a type

See original GitHub issue

What are the steps to reproduce this issue?

Orval: ^6.6.1 Type: react-query

Spring Boot has a Health Check endpoint defined as below with just scheme type = Object. because its an ANY response as a health check can have different details depending on what you are monitoring like Disk Space ,or Database Health Check etc.

OpenApiV3.json

"/actuator/health": {
      "get": {
        "tags": [
          "Actuator"
        ],
        "summary": "Actuator web endpoint 'health'",
        "operationId": "health",
        "responses": {
          "200": {
            "description": "OK",
            "content": {
              "*/*": {
                "schema": {
                  "type": "object"
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }

A typical response from the Health Check looks like this…

{
  "status": "UP",
  "details": {
    "diskSpace": {
      "status": "UP",
      "details": {
        "total": 250685575168,
        "free": 188298530816,
        "threshold": 10485760
      }
    }
  }
}

However Orval is generating an empty TypeScript object like this:

export type Health200 = {};

So now in my code I have to cast Health200 to any so I can get to the `status field.

if (healthCheck.isSuccess) {
    const result = healthCheck.data as any; // cast as any to get to status
    if (result.status !== "UP") {
        throw new Error('REST API is currently down.');
    }
}
