[rust client] Incomplete type in response generates code that fails to compile #1430

Description

The Rust generated code fails to compile if the api defines a response type of object with no additional information. Other code generators like C# do generate code that compiles and runs even if it isn't a very useful response.

The errors look like:

error[E0412]: cannot find type `Value` in this scope
  --> src\apis\file_api.rs:34:44
   |
34 |     fn clone(&self, ) -> Box<Future<Item = Value, Error = Error<serde_json::Value>>>;
   |                                            ^^^^^ not found in this scope
help: possible candidates are found in other modules, you can import them into scope
   |

It looks like the return type could be serde_json::Value instead of Value, maybe as simple as changing this line.
