generator-jhipster: Entity with string "status" field breaks React reducers

Overview of the issue

If an entity contains a string field named status, webpack compilation of the reducer fails with an error:

ERROR in /private/tmp/jh/react/src/main/webapp/app/entities/foo/foo.reducer.ts
(103,12): Type 'AxiosPromise<any>' cannot be converted to type 'Promise<IFoo>'.

ERROR in /private/tmp/jh/react/src/main/webapp/app/entities/foo/foo.reducer.ts
(103,12): Type 'AxiosPromise<any>' cannot be converted to type 'Promise<IFoo>'.
  Types of property 'then' are incompatible.
    Type '<TResult1 = AxiosResponse<any>, TResult2 = never>(onfulfilled?: (value: AxiosResponse<any>) => TR...' is not comparable to type '<TResult1 = IFoo, TResult2 = never>(onfulfilled?: (value: IFoo) => TResult1 | PromiseLike<TResult...'.
      Types of parameters 'onfulfilled' and 'onfulfilled' are incompatible.
        Types of parameters 'value' and 'value' are incompatible.
          Type 'AxiosResponse<any>' is not comparable to type 'IFoo'.
            Types of property 'status' are incompatible.
              Type 'number' is not comparable to type 'string'.

ERROR in /private/tmp/jh/react/src/main/webapp/app/entities/foo/foo.reducer.ts
(110,14): Type 'AxiosPromise<any>' cannot be converted to type 'Promise<IFoo>'.

Motivation for or Use Case

This should work out of the box

Reproduce the error

Generate a React project and the entity with the following JDL:

entity Foo {
    status String
}

Suggest a Fix

Not sure why this happens, it doesn’t affect entities without a string status field. The part of the error that says Type 'number' is not comparable to type 'string' makes me guess it’s a conflict between the http status field and the entity status field?
