Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or if it is simply not implemented, but it would be good to be able to have one controller generated per model and/or route, instead of all controller actions going into one controller (DefaultApiController, in DefaultApi.cs)

Describe the solution you'd like

For example, if my models were Foo and Bar, then I'd want something like FoosController and BarsController to be generated

Describe alternatives you've considered

Research direction

Start by examining the ASP.NET Core generator entry points and the generated DefaultApiController in DefaultApi.cs. Determine how models and routes are currently grouped, then define how generation should produce separate FoosController and BarsController outputs and what generated results would confirm the feature is complete.
