[BUG] [Kotlin] 5.2.0 generic request type cause issue Platform class kotlin.Unit requires explicit JsonAdapter to be registered if requestBody is not provided

When using latest version 5.2.0. I have tested with 5.2.1-SNAPSHOT and has still this issue. This works with 5.1.1 version.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Platform class kotlin.Unit requires explicit JsonAdapter to be registered
	at com.squareup.moshi.ClassJsonAdapter$1.create(ClassJsonAdapter.java:75)
	at com.squareup.moshi.Moshi.adapter(Moshi.java:145)
	at com.squareup.moshi.Moshi.adapter(Moshi.java:105)
	at com.squareup.moshi.Moshi.adapter(Moshi.java:79)

Spec:

openapi: 3.0.1
paths:
  /v1/abcs/{id}/cancel:
    patch:
      tags:
        - Abcs
      operationId: cancelAbc
      parameters:
        - name: id
          in: path
          required: true
          schema:
            type: string
            format: uuid
      responses:
        "200":
          description: OK
          content:
            application/json:
              schema:
                $ref: '#/components/schemas/MockResponse'
    MockResponse:
      required:
        - response
      type: object
      properties:
        response:
          $ref: '#/components/schemas/Response'
 components:
   schemas:     
      Response:
            required:
              - confirmationId
            type: object
            properties:
              id:
                type: string
                format: uuid
              confirmationId:
                type: string

Note: no requestBody for patch.

Generated code:

    suspend fun cancelAbc(id: java.util.UUID) : MockResponse{
        val localVariableConfig = cancelAbcRequestConfig(id = id)

        val localVarResponse = request<Unit, MockResponse>(
            localVariableConfig
        )
       .....
}

data class MockResponse (
    @Json(name = "response")
    val response: Response
)

Here, the request type is Unit. while 5.1.1 generates only request<MockResponse> no request type.

Extra related dependencies:

    implementation("com.squareup.moshi:moshi-kotlin:1.12.0")
    implementation "com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:4.9.0"

When I add requestBody it works and I see generated code as follows:

      requestBody:
        content:
          application/json:
            schema:
              $ref: '#/components/schemas/MockRequest'
        required: false

Then

    suspend fun cancelAbc(id: java.util.UUID) : MockResponse{
        val localVariableConfig = cancelAbcRequestConfig(id = id)

        val localVarResponse = request<Unit, MockResponse>(
            localVariableConfig
        )
       .....
}

Changed to

    suspend fun cancelAbc(id: java.util.UUID, mockRequest: MockRequest?) : MockResponse{
        val localVariableConfig = cancelAbcRequestConfig(id = id)

        val localVarResponse = request<MockRequest, MockResponse>(
            localVariableConfig
        )
       .....
}

The problem is Unit as request type when no explicit requestBody is added in specification of openAPI.
