openapi-generator: [BUG] PHP sends boolean params as "1" or "" instead of "true" or "false"

Bug Report Checklist

• Have you validated the input using an OpenAPI validator (example)?
• What’s the version of OpenAPI Generator used?

• [Optional] Bounty to sponsor the fix (example)

Description

When params are of type “boolean”, they should be sent as “true” or “false”, but the PHP generator sends them as “1” or “”. But it correctly documents the parameters as @param bool. So if you send boolean parameters, it ends up doing something like (string) true, which evaluates to 1.

openapi-generator version

4.0.0-SNAPSHOT

OpenAPI declaration file content or url

https://gist.github.com/jacobweber/e83874fbf1c0ee6ede79100a7507e11f

Command line used for generation

java -jar openapi-generator.jar generate -i <url> -g php -o /path/to/output

Steps to reproduce

1. Build the above spec.
2. Run composer install from the output dir.
3. Run the “Getting Started” example code in README.md:

$admin = True; // bool | Include admin users?
try {
    $result = $apiInstance->usersGet($admin);
    print_r($result);
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'Exception when calling DefaultApi->usersGet: ', $e->getMessage(), PHP_EOL;
}

1. It calls GET http://localhost/api/users?admin=1 instead of GET http://localhost/api/users?admin=true.
