[JENKINS-42723] Fix form fields for active choices parameters when triggering builds via the parameterized trigger plugin

I recently discovered that jobs which contain parameter types supported by the Active Choices plugin don't get rendered correctly when using the parameterized trigger plugin.

More specifically, when accessing the /parambuild/ URL for a particular job form elements provided by Active Choices parameters are rendered as plain-text parameters instead of their correct types. For example, choice parameters with drop down lists appear as text entry fields with no drop-down list at all.
