Description
The java generator using okhttp-gson generates code that doesn't compile because of .validateJsonElement calls on Objects that don't have this method. This happens with both oneOf and anyOf types.
// validate the json string with OffsetDateTime
try {
OffsetDateTime.validateJsonElement(jsonElement);
return;
} catch (Exception e) {
errorMessages.add(String.format("Deserialization for OffsetDateTime failed with `%s`.", e.getMessage()));
// continue to the next one
}

Suggest a fix
When validating json elements, the fallback for types that do not have any special handling like arrays or primitives is always to call
the static .validateJsonElement of the type. That doesn't work for non-generated types like OffsetDateTime though.
{{^isPrimitiveType}}
{{{dataType}}}.validateJsonElement(jsonElement);
actualAdapter = adapter{{#sanitizeGeneric}}{{{dataType}}}{{/sanitizeGeneric}};
{{/isPrimitiveType}}
It has to be checked whether or not we are dealing with a type that has a validateJsonElement method (a generated model class?), if not, other validation checks have to be performed.
