REST Adapter returning empty string instead of null after upgrade to 12.2.1.3

Users have recently upgrade to OSB 12.2.1.3 from 12.1.3. After upgrade, REST Services started returning "" (empty string) for "xsd:dateTime" elements instead of "null". It's causing errors in consumers applications once string cannot be cast to date value.

In earlier version 12.1.3, "xsd:dateTime" element was returning null.
