Sample code for rust-server would not compile

Description

I am learning to use swagger-codegen for rust. Surprised to see the generated code from sample petstore would not compile:

samples/server/petstore/rust-server$ cargo build --example client
. . .
Compiling swagger v0.10.0
Compiling petstore_api v1.0.0 (file:///tmp/samples/server/petstore/rust-server)

Thanks for raising this. The problem is in TestInlineAdditionalProperties, which rust-server does not yet support. This is quite embarrassing, though.

I think there are two things needed:

• Add support for additional properties (probably by throwing our hands in the air and returning a json::Object).
• Create a rust-server-specific swagger template that only includes those features that rust-server supports. This would also allow us to add features that only rust-server supports.

I'm currently working on the second. It seems quite straightforward, so I'm hoping to get a PR within the next week.
