AlertManager/Opsgenie - I can't template only by the responder type field

[herberton]

What did you do?
I was setting the built-in alert-manager integration with opsgenie.

What did you expect to see?
I want to template responder type field like all other fields that is templatable.

What did you see instead? Under which circumstances?
When I put a template string at the responder type field I got this error:

ts=2022-04-11T18:35:35.669Z caller=coordinator.go:118 level=error component=configuration msg="Loading configuration file failed" file=/etc/alertmanager/config.yaml err="OpsGenieConfig responder { {{ .CommonLabels.responder_name }}  {{ .commonlabels.responder_type }}} type does not match valid options ^(team|teams|user|escalation|schedule)$"

I think it is a bug because I'm able to template all other fields of opsgenie_configs, such as responder name.
