Description
Description
Currently, the generated Model classes know how to serialize/deserialize to/from JSON. Often, we need to use the same model classes to hydrate/rehydrate to/from pList files. It will be good to have the model classes reused for this purpose.
This will be built on the same lines as the serializable option in the Java codegen
Swagger-codegen version

Research direction
Compare the Swift model-generation templates with the Java codegen's serializable option, which the issue identifies as the reference. Done means generated Swift model classes support NSCoding so they can hydrate and rehydrate from plist files as well as serialize to JSON.
