Inline oneOf variants with properties/required fail: "Invalid property in union"

Description

When a schema uses oneOf with inline object variants (each having properties and required but no $ref), the generator fails with:

Invalid property in union <property_name>

This happens regardless of whether anyOf or oneOf is used. The issue is that the generator cannot process inline discriminated union variants that define their own properties — it expects $ref pointers to named component schemas.

Minimal Reproduction

openapi: "3.0.3"
info:
  title: Test
  version: "1.0"
paths: {}
components:
  schemas:
    MyModel:
      type: object
      properties:
        rules:
          type: array
          items:
            type: object
            oneOf:
              - properties:
                  rule_type:
                    type: string
                    enum: ["type_a"]
                  value_a:
                    type: string
                required: ["rule_type", "value_a"]
              - properties:
                  rule_type:
                    type: string
                    enum: ["type_b"]
                  value_b:
                    type: integer
                required: ["rule_type", "value_b"]

$ openapi-python-client generate --path spec.yaml
Unable to process schema /components/schemas/MyModel:
Invalid property in union rules_item

Workaround

Extracting each variant into a named component schema and using $ref works:

components:
  schemas:
    RuleTypeA:
      type: object
      properties:
        rule_type:
          type: string
          enum: ["type_a"]
        value_a:
          type: string
      required: ["rule_type", "value_a"]
    RuleTypeB:
      type: object
      properties:
        rule_type:
          type: string
          enum: ["type_b"]
        value_b:
          type: integer
      required: ["rule_type", "value_b"]
    MyModel:
      type: object
      properties:
        rules:
          type: array
          items:
            oneOf:
              - $ref: "#/components/schemas/RuleTypeA"
              - $ref: "#/components/schemas/RuleTypeB"

Commencez par exécuter openapi-python-client generate --path spec.yaml avec la reproduction minimale et suivez le traitement des unions de schémas qui signale Invalid property in union. Comme aucun fichier source ni chemin de test n’est indiqué dans l’issue, localisez d’abord la gestion existante des variantes oneOf/anyOf basées sur $ref. Le travail est terminé lorsque les variantes inline avec properties et required sont générées correctement, tandis que le workaround documenté de $ref continue de fonctionner.
