Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Some "swagger.json" of external api are incomplete (missing query parameter documentation for instance or http headers...).
The generated rest client has no extension point (to pass extra parameters).
Describe the solution you'd like
Ability to pass a lamba function to interract with localVarQueryParams, localVarHeaderParams... before they are used
Describe alternatives you've considered
Extend the the Api or write my own one.
Additional context
This is for the java client generator

Research direction
Start in the Java client generator and trace how localVarQueryParams and localVarHeaderParams are assembled and consumed in generated REST clients. Define an extension point for passing a lambda before those parameters are used, then verify that generated clients can add undocumented query parameters or headers without modifying the generated API manually.
