Sending a plain string as a message value is not received on a wehbook subscription about firefly HOT 4 CLOSED

Example on how to reproduce bug/how to connect via webhook using mock server. Testing via swagger:

1. Have a firefly stack running via CLI.
2. Create a mock server in https://requestcatcher.com/. For example, I created a server as https://ff-webhook.requestcatcher.com/
3. Test via swagger by going to http://localhost:5000/api
4. To set subscription, at endpoint POST /namespaces/{ns}/subscriptions, post with the following body:
   {
   "transport": "webhooks",
   "name": "some_webhook_subscription",
   "options": {
   "url": "https://ff-webhook.requestcatcher.com/ff"
   }
   }
   It should return 201
5. Try sending a string broadcast message from the endpoint POST /namespaces/{ns}/messages/broadcast with an example body:
   {
   "data": [
   {
   "value": "hello world, this is some test data!"
   }
   ]
   }
6. In the request catcher for mock server https://ff-webhook.requestcatcher.com/, it should receive the message value "hello world, this is some test data!". However, the current bug is that the subscriber receives an empty object -> {}.
