Content-Type: "multipart/form-data" is ignored

In generated axios http-API client there's a line

headers: {
        ...(requestParams.headers || {}),
        ...(type && type !== ContentType.FormData ? { "Content-Type": type } : {}),
      },

this prevents us from sending a request with content-type multipart/form-data. Could anyone tell me what the reason was for this solution?

Replacing this with a simple

      headers: {
        ...(requestParams.headers || {}),
        "Content-Type": type
      },

fixes the issue

I think the header is applied automatically by the browser when passing a FormData object in the body. Not sure if that holds true for Axios though but this appears to be the behavior for me using fetch.

@Isola92 Not the case for Axios + latest Chrome

Same behavior using react-native:

We have to pass content-type with the header param to be able to send form-data. As the generated request have already the type, it is sad to redefined it manually
