Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
In Kotlin it is handy to have all DTO classes placed inside singleton object in one file which allows:
- avoiding having names prefixed for all classes
- importing just this singleton object (for example named
api) in code that uses these DTOs and then referencing particular DTO in code using this object (for exampleapi.Request).
Describe the solution you'd like
All generated DTOs should be placed inside singleton object in one file.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Allow customization of templates to achieve that. How can this be done?

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by locating the Kotlin DTO generation templates and determine how template customization currently works; the requested result is all generated DTO classes inside one singleton object in a single file, with references such as api.Request.
