[SPE-4623] Circular references in models are not handled in Python

[pietrodn]

Hi, the generated Python client crashes with OpenAPI models that have circular references.

I'm generating the APIs from the Avalara specification (https://rest.avatax.com/swagger/v2/swagger.json) like this:

SCRIPT_DIR=$(dirname "$0")
curl -o generation/avalara-swagger.json https://rest.avatax.com/swagger/v2/swagger.json
speakeasy openapi transform convert-swagger --schema $SCRIPT_DIR/avalara-swagger.json -o $SCRIPT_DIR/openapi.json
mkdir -p avalara-async-client-source
cp $SCRIPT_DIR/gen.yaml avalara-async-client-source/gen.yaml
speakeasy generate sdk --out avalara-async-client-source --schema $SCRIPT_DIR/openapi.json --lang python

as gen.yaml I am using:

configVersion: 2.0.0
python:
  packageName: avalara-async-client
  version: "0.1.0"
  description: Avalara Async API Client SDK for Python
generation:
  baseServerUrl: https://sandbox-rest.avatax.com

Running the sample from the README crashes badly.

Hi @pietrodn thanks for the report. We'll investigate! Could you try going through the onboarding steps shown in your workspace? So instead of generate you would run speakeasy quickstart and run ? Thanks
