swagger-inflector

We want to use swagger-inflector without individual controllers and individual methods. We want to have a single method that accepts incoming requests from multiple operations (somewhat similarly to what one can do with vertx's swagger-router). Obviously, this can be done manually by using swagger-codegen l:java-inflector and then hooking all methods into some shared code, but we'd rather not have to do it at all (manually or using our own code-gen; in fact, we wouldn't be using java-inflector in our project). Not sure if this is a direction the project is willing to accept; if not, I'll fork this project and possibly only support sinks (which is what I need for my project).

I was thinking of 1) exposing an operation-level vendor extension that describe if this operation is handled by a sink and if so, what controller and method. 2) exposing a swagger-level global that applies to all operations (maybe with an operation-level exception). 3) A sink method will accept the request and return a response, but will also accept the operation/operationId (to know which operation was invoked) and an Object[] with the arguments (instead of spreading them).

FYI - a follow up to this will be to add some swagger definition to use AsyncResponse instead of Response, to allow non-blocking handling of requests. This will further change the params.

@myok12 that's an interesting idea. @frantuma do you have any thoughts on the suggestion?
