Description

The source_error type returned from SagaErrorInfo is an empty object in the openapi spec. I ran across this while working on the TypeScript generator. I haven't dug into why it's this way yet, but we should fix it.

Research direction

Start at openapi/nexus.json around line 10292 and inspect the generated schema for source_error in SagaErrorInfo. Trace how that schema is produced, then verify that source_error is represented with its intended fields rather than as an empty object. Check the resulting OpenAPI output in the TypeScript generator context.
