Header parameter generation failure for fiber-server. "value" is an []string but the function BindStyledParameterWithOptions requires a single string #2029

Description

I have the following OpenAPI:

openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: Foo
  description: FooDesc
  version: 0.0.0
servers:
  - url: 'http://localhost:8080/'
paths:
  /{someString}:
    parameters:
      - name: someString
        in: path
        description: String of something.
        required: true
        schema:
          type: string
      - name: User-Agent
        in: header
        description: User agent.
        required: true
        schema:
          type: string

    get:
        [...]

I try to generate with the following options:

# yaml-language-server: $schema=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oapi-codegen/oapi-codegen/HEAD/configuration-schema.json
package: foo_api
output: server.gen.go
generate:
  models: true
  fiber-server: true

and run //go:generate go tool oapi-codegen -config cfg.yml openapi.yml using github.com/oapi-codegen/oapi-codegen/v2 v2.4.1

After generation go build fails with the following reason: cannot use value (variable of type []string) as string value in argument to runtime.BindStyledParameterWithOptions

The generated code snippet is the following:

// ------------- Required header parameter "User-Agent" -------------
if value, found := headers[http.CanonicalHeaderKey("User-Agent")]; found {
	var UserAgent string

	err = runtime.BindStyledParameterWithOptions("simple", "User-Agent", value, &UserAgent, runtime.BindStyledParameterOptions{ParamLocation: runtime.ParamLocationHeader, Explode: false, Required: true})
	if err != nil {
		return fiber.NewError(fiber.StatusBadRequest, fmt.Errorf("Invalid format for parameter User-Agent: %w", err).Error())
	}

	params.UserAgent = UserAgent

} else {
	err = fmt.Errorf("Header parameter User-Agent is required, but not found: %w", err)
	return fiber.NewError(fiber.StatusBadRequest, err.Error())
}

The expected string variable "value" is an array.

I think I found the correct lines in the template here:

{{range .HeaderParams}}// ------------- {{if .Required}}Required{{else}}Optional{{end}} header parameter "{{.ParamName}}" -------------
if value, found := headers[http.CanonicalHeaderKey("{{.ParamName}}")]; found {
var {{.GoName}} {{.TypeDef}}
{{if .IsPassThrough}}
params.{{.GoName}} = {{if .HasOptionalPointer}}&{{end}}value
{{end}}
{{if .IsJson}}
err = json.Unmarshal([]byte(value), &{{.GoName}})
if err != nil {
return fiber.NewError(fiber.StatusBadRequest, fmt.Errorf("Error unmarshaling parameter '{{.ParamName}}' as JSON: %w", err).Error())
}
{{end}}
{{if .IsStyled}}
err = runtime.BindStyledParameterWithOptions("{{.Style}}", "{{.ParamName}}", value, &{{.GoName}}, runtime.BindStyledParameterOptions{ParamLocation: runtime.ParamLocationHeader, Explode: {{.Explode}}, Required: {{.Required}}})

As workaround I change the faulty parametr in a way that only the first element is selected:

err = runtime.BindStyledParameterWithOptions("simple", "User-Agent", value[0], &UserAgent, runtime.BindStyledParameterOptions{ParamLocation: runtime.ParamLocationHeader, Explode: false, Required: true})
