Schema with non-complex type as root element produces extra/invalid pojos

Currently jsonschema2pojo can't deal with schemas that contain a simple type (e.g. string, integer, array, etc) as their root element.

Example schema 1:
{
"type" : "string"
}

JSON data valid against example schema 1:

"abc"

Expected jsonschema2pojo behaviour:

No pojos should be generated. JSON content will be unmarshalled into java.lang.String.

Example schema 2:

{
"type" : "array",
"items" : {
"type" : "object",
"properties" : {
"foo" : {
"type" : "string"
}
}
}
}

JSON data valid against example schema 1:
[{"foo":"bar"}, {"foo":"bar"}, {"foo":"bar"}]

Expected behaviour:

One pojo should be generated. The root construct will be represented in Java by a simple collection (e.g. java.util.List), and the elements of that collection will be instances of the generated pojo.
