Improve coercions esp with generics
previously when we coerced or resolved values even with config keys, we did
not reliably obey generics. now we do. preserves previous behaviour except
now can be a bit stricter when convering, e.g. `ConfigKey<Set<Integer>>` now is
only allowed to contain integers (but strings will be converted; previously it
could contain strings and wouldn't even attempt to convert them)

coercing from string to list can now handle objects
now have two methods for parsing a list as a string, depending whether it
wants object or string

no longer coerce things if generic parametrized types don't match
previously we would return e.g. a List not containing T if List<T> was
requested.
this was deprecated and we would warn, but now we are stricter.

respect generics better when coercing
previous commit used yaml parse even for things like List<String>; now do
string-list parse in that case.
means the json adapters have access to the type token, but that means
running them earlier and ensuring we
do a re-coercion if needed.

preserve generics info when resolving config keys, more places
previously we converted to Class in places, losing generic info for
resolution

improve coercion of items with generics, esp config keys
previously config keys did not properly keep generic information for their
contents;
now this information is preserved and the results coerced as per the types.
also enhances the ValueResolver to have clearer semantics when coercing
generics in maps/iterables.
