Support java.util.Date in queries from smallrye-graphql-client
I am using this library to fetch data from GitHub and I noticed that some types are not assembled correctly. This is what I have so far:  

```java 
@GraphQlClientApi(endpoint = "https://api.github.com/graphql")
@AuthorizationHeader(confPrefix = "github", type = AuthorizationHeader.Type.BEARER)
public interface GitHub {

    @Query("repository")
    Repository repository(String owner, String name);
}
```

This is the `Repository` class: 

```java
public class Repository {
    public String id;
    public java.util.Date createdAt;
}
```


This is my test: 

```java
    @Test
    void test() {
        final GitHub github = GraphQlClientBuilder.newBuilder().build(GitHub.class);
        System.out.println(github.repository("gastaldi", "backport-repo"));
    }
```


And this is the error I get: 

```java
io.smallrye.graphql.client.typesafe.api.GraphQlClientException: errors from service: [{"message":"Parse error on \\"}\\" (RCURLY) at [1, 77]","locations":[{"line":1,"column":77}]}]:
