Description

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

With Kotlin projects it is not possible currently to use hateoas links without adding custom code yourself.

Describe the solution you'd like

I want the same parameter from the https://openapi-generator.tech/docs/generators/spring/ generator 'hateoas' to be available in the kotlin-spring generator.

Describe alternatives you've considered

What i'am doing now is adding the hateoas links to the DTO's myself.

Research direction

Start by comparing the kotlin-spring generator with the Spring generator documentation, focusing on how the existing hateoas parameter is declared and consumed. Trace the kotlin-spring generator's configuration and templates, then verify that enabling the parameter produces HATEOAS links in the generated Kotlin output.
