## 1.23.0

**`(fix):`** Endpoints whose request body is a referenced type no longer serialize path parameters into
the JSON body. With `respectOptionalRequestBody`, an omitted optional body on such an endpoint
now sends no body and no `Content-Type` instead of a body containing the path parameters.

**`(feat):`** Add the `respectOptionalRequestBody` configuration option. When enabled, an endpoint whose
request body the API does not require lets callers omit the body: the request then carries
neither a body nor a `Content-Type` header, instead of sending `{}` as `application/json`.
Disabled by default.
