Description

Passing of query parameter values is completely broken in 7.18.0.

• expected: /login?username=myUsername&password=myPassword
• actual: /login?username=%5BmyUsername%5D&password=%5BmyPassword%5D

So username=[myUsername] (values are treated as single-element lists before doing 'toString').

openapi-generator version

Worked in 7.17.0, broken in 7.18.0

Steps to reproduce

Run the test I submitted in #22588 against code from 7.18.0.

In case you think 'this is a problem with how the test constructs URLs, this does not mean URLs are broken when the normal tech stack is used': I found the issue by examining how real code executed on production. URLs were exactly like showed by the test (i.e., extra [ and ] added).
