[BUG] Generator ignores description of schema properties that has a $ref

Description

If a schema has a property that is defined using a $ref, any metadata for that property is ignored.
For example, if the property has a description in the specification, that description is ignored.

In the output, the file:
.\repro_openapi\src\main\java\org\openapitools\client\model\Struct1.java

Actual:

   /**
   * Get field1
   * @return field1
  **/
  @javax.annotation.Nullable
  public Struct2 getField1() {
    return field1;
  }

Expected:

   /**
   * F1
   * @return field1
  **/
  @javax.annotation.Nullable
  public Struct2 getField1() {
    return field1;
  }

Steps to reproduce

1. Run the above command
2. Observe the contents of src\main\java\org\openapitools\client\model\Struct1.java

Suggest a fix

I've tracked the issue to OpenAPIDeserializer.getSchema(ObjectNode node, String location, ParseResult result) where the code ignores all the own metadata of the property and takes the data from the $ref.

Start at OpenAPIDeserializer.getSchema(ObjectNode node, String location, ParseResult result), which the report identifies as dropping property metadata when $ref is present. Reproduce the issue with the supplied OpenAPI declaration and Java generator command, then inspect the generated Struct1.java. Done means the field1 accessor includes the specified F1 description instead of the fallback field name.
