Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, upon running with
--generator-name rust \
--library hyper \
the generated client's Cargo.toml declares a dependency on hyper-tls.
This, in turn, depends on the system tls lib (libssl-dev/openssl-dev).
Instead, I'd prefer to be able to specify a dependency on alternative TLS libraries (specifically, hyper-rustls).
Describe the solution you'd like
Some new flag to --additional-properties/configOptions to select which TLS library to use for hyper.
That flag would be documented on https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator/blob/master/docs/generators/rust.md
Describe alternatives you've considered
sed -i "s/hyper-tls.*/hyper-rustls = \"${HYPER_RUSTLS_VERSION}\"/g" "${CARGO_TOML}"
is what I'm trying right now; no promises that that even works 😭

Research direction
Start with the Rust generator's handling of --additional-properties/configOptions and the generated Cargo.toml dependency on hyper-tls. Review docs/generators/rust.md for the existing options, then determine how a TLS-library selection should be exposed and documented. Done means generating a hyper client can select hyper-rustls instead of hyper-tls without the sed workaround.
