Description

This is related to bug https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator/issues/14525 which is already fixed for java, but when using generator "spring" and library "spring-cloud", instead of Collection, array<Collection> is generated.

    typeMappings.set([
            "OffsetDateTime" : "java.time.LocalDateTime",
            "array" : "Collection",
    ])

Research direction

Start with the Spring generator's spring-cloud library and its typeMappings handling, then compare the behavior with the Java fix referenced in issue #14525. Reproduce the generated return type from the YAML mapping shown; done means it is Collection rather than array<Collection>.
