IndexError when printing dashboard response containing empty group_by list

Start in .generator/src/generator/templates/model_utils.j2, focusing on model_to_dict() and get_oneof_instance(), which generate src/datadog_api_client/model_utils.py. Reproduce the empty group_by case through DashboardsApi.get_dashboard() and print(response) or to_dict(). Done means the response serializes and prints without IndexError when _composed_instances is empty.

Describe the bug
Calling print(response) on a dashboard response raises IndexError: list index out of range when the dashboard contains a query_value widget with a logs query that has "group_by": [] (empty list).

Labels: kind/bug, severity/major

To Reproduce

1. Create a dashboard with a query_value widget using a logs query with group_by set to an empty list.
2. Call get_dashboard() using the Python API client.
3. Call print(response) on the returned object.
4. See IndexError: list index out of range.

Minimal reproduction:

from datadog_api_client import Configuration, ApiClient
from datadog_api_client.v1.api.dashboards_api import DashboardsApi

configuration = Configuration()
with ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
    api = DashboardsApi(api_client)
    response = api.get_dashboard(dashboard_id="<dashboard-id>")
    print(response)  # raises IndexError

Expected behavior
The response should be printed (or serialized via to_dict()) without raising any exception.

    return self._composed_instances[0]
IndexError: list index out of range

Root cause
group_by is typed as FormulaAndFunctionEventQueryGroupByConfig, a ModelComposed class with a oneOf of two variants: a list of group-by objects and a fields object. When the API returns "group_by": [], the oneOf matcher cannot determine which variant the empty list belongs to, so _composed_instances is left empty.

model_to_dict() in model_utils.py enters its traversal loop based on _composed_schemas being non-empty, without checking whether _composed_instances is populated, and then crashes at get_oneof_instance() which unconditionally accesses self._composed_instances[0].

Workaround
Set configuration.preload_content = False to skip deserialization and parse the raw JSON manually:

import json
from datadog_api_client import Configuration, ApiClient
from datadog_api_client.v1.api.dashboards_api import DashboardsApi

configuration = Configuration()
configuration.preload_content = False
with ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
    api = DashboardsApi(api_client)
    response = api.get_dashboard(dashboard_id="<dashboard-id>")
    data = json.loads(response.data)
    print(json.dumps(data, indent=2))

Environment and Versions (please complete the following information):

• datadog-api-client version: 2.55.0 (latest)
• Python version: 3.14
• OS: macOS

Additional context
The fix requires two changes in .generator/src/generator/templates/model_utils.j2 (the template that generates src/datadog_api_client/model_utils.py):

1. Guard the loop in model_to_dict() to only enter when _composed_instances is also non-empty:

   while model._composed_schemas and model._composed_instances:
   

2. Make get_oneof_instance() fall back to self instead of crashing when _composed_instances is empty:

   def get_oneof_instance(self):
       if not self._composed_instances:
           return self
       return self._composed_instances[0]
