Description

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice to be able to set subpackage for generated model classes.

...
components:
  schemas:
...
    ClassToPlaceInSubPackage:
      type: object
      subpackage: sub.pkg
...

Now if the model package option of openapi generator was set to com.example.project.someapi.models, the ClassToPlaceInSubPackage would go to the package com.example.project.someapi.models.sub.pkg;.

Research direction

No file or test is named in the issue. Start by tracing how the model package option is applied to generated model classes and how schema extensions are handled, then identify the affected generator templates or entry points. Done means a schema’s subpackage value places that model under the configured models package plus the value while preserving existing generation behavior.
