Not possible to create a uni-directional many-to-one relation with the CLI

[yennor]

Overview of the issue

It doesn't seem to be possible to reply No to "Do you want to generate a bidirectional relationship (true)". I've tried out "no", "n" "false", random text. It always creates a bidirectional relationship and it is necessary to delete the "otherEntityRelationshipName" entry from the .json file manually.

Motivation for or Use Case

Reproduce the error

execute

• jhipster entity entityName
• create your fields
• create a many-to-one relationship, and try to make it a uni-directional one.
