Variant structs like
MuteDurationNotMutedincludedKind stringas a regular Go field. Since the zero value ofstringis"",&MuteDurationNotMuted{}would marshal as{"kind":""}instead of{"kind":"NotMuted"}, requiring users to manually set theKindfield to the proper value.Changes
generate_variant_struct: Excludes thekindfield from struct properties (it's a discriminator, not user data) and adds aMarshalJSONmethod per variant that always injects the correctkindvalue using thealiaspattern to avoid infinite recursion.TypeGenerator: Addshas_union_types()method.types.go.j2: Extends theencoding/jsonimport condition to trigger when union types exist (since the newMarshalJSONusesjson.Marshal).
