Spring AI Tool Calling, String inputType method with json-style String LLM response causing Jackson parse exception.

Bug description

I have a Tool (func as tool) defined like this:

class PlanningTool implements Function<String, Result> {
  public Result apply (String input) {
    //
  }
}

Declare and register FunctionToolCallback to ChatClient like this:

FunctionToolCallback
            .builder(name, new PlanningTool())
            .description(description)
            .inputSchema(PARAMETERS)
            .inputType(String.class)
            .build();

If the LLM returns json style input String like blow:

Jackson parser will produce the following exception:

Caused by: com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.MismatchedInputException: Cannot deserialize value of type `java.lang.String` from Object value (token `JsonToken.START_OBJECT`)
 at [Source: REDACTED (`StreamReadFeature.INCLUDE_SOURCE_IN_LOCATION` disabled); line: 1, column: 1]

    at com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.DeserializationContext.handleUnexpectedToken(DeserializationContext.java:1541) ~[jackson-databind-2.18.1.jar:2.18.1]

Some code like this should solve this issue:

I request;
if (toolInputType == String.class) {
    request = (I) toolInput;
} else{
    request = JsonParser.fromJson(toolInput, toolInputType);
}
