Hello, I've made a new PR [1] for CONFIGURATION-753 as part of my preparations for the next release. I'd like to get another pair of eyes on it if possible since it adds to the public API. The primary cause of the issue is that DefaultConversionHandler and ConfigurationInterpolator use different logic when determining how to convert container objects (e.g., collections and arrays) to strings. DefaultConversionHandler chooses the first element from the container and ConfigurationInterpolator just calls toString on the entire container, resulting in inconsistent string interpolation results. The change I made is to extract the ConfigurationInterpolator string conversion logic into a configurable "stringConverter" function that defaults to behave similarly to DefaultConversionHandler. If this logic is not what users want, they are free to override it.
If anyone has time to give feedback on this, it would be much appreciated, especially since I haven't worked with configuration much before.
