Description
I updated from oav 2.5.4 to the latest version, 2.11.6 and I now get the error:
```
Validating "examples" and "x-ms-examples" in .\specification\account\7.1\accounts.json
Error reported:
code: JSON_PARSING_ERROR
message: 'Json parsing error: invalid symbol'
schemaPosition:
line: 1
column: 1
schemaUrl: .\specification\account\7.1\accounts.json
```
It appears that behavior changed in 2.8.0 #659.
Can you add the `stripBom` back in for convenience?
I'll attempt to get the BOMs removed from:
JSON files containing UTF-8 Byte order mark (BOM) #487
