[Java][Spring] Make generated API model classes Java Serializable #1619

The Java classes of the model generated by OpenAPI are perfect candidates to be Java Serializable. Unfortunate I did not find a way to make the generated model classes implement Serializable interface.

Without serialization it is not possible to store model objects as part of the JEE/Web-Container Session. It also restricts the usage of these objects as part of Java Exceptions and inside other serializable classes.

On the other hand I do not see any disadvantages of being serializable in case of DTO objects.
