Added support for string responses (#4057)

* Added support for string responses

When a method/URL/response is defined to return string:
- If no content types are define, default to 'text/plain' instead of
  'application/json'
- Add response handler, that returns the reponse string as-is if response
  content-type is 'text/plain'

* Removed use of unused tag vendor tag

- The tag was vendorExtensions.x-codegen-response.isPrimitiveType
