`openai.files.content` returns raw Response object

[itta611]

Confirm this is a Node library issue and not an underlying OpenAI API issue

• [X] This is an issue with the Node library

Describe the bug

In the documentation, openai.files.content is described as returns content as string type. However, it returns raw Response type.

import OpenAI from "openai";

const openai = new OpenAI();

async function main() {
  const file = await openai.files.content("file-abc123");

  console.log(file); // Expected to show a string (ref. https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/files/retrieve-contents)
}

main();

Output:

To Reproduce

1. Write the code above (copy&pasted from https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/files/retrieve-contents)
2. It shows file is a Response object

I'd like to work on this documentation issue. I'll clarify the return type for openai.files.content and add an example showing how to properly consume the Response object. ETA: 1-2 hours.
