DEV: adds support for nested collections and objects (#30265)
Collections were an existing concept in FormKit but didn't allow nesting. You can now do infinite nesting:

```gjs
<Form
  @data={{hash
    foo=(array
      (hash bar=(array (hash baz=1))) (hash bar=(array (hash baz=2)))
    )
  }}
  as |form|
>
  <form.Collection @name="foo" as |parent parentIndex|>
    <parent.Collection @name="bar" as |child childIndex|>
      <child.Field @name="baz" @title="Baz" as |field|>
        <field.Input />
      </child.Field>
    </parent.Collection>
  </form.Collection>
</Form>
```

On top of this a new component has been added: `Object`. It allows you to represent objects in your form data. Collections are basically handling arrays, and Objects are objects.

This is useful if you form data has this shape for example:

```javascript
{ foo: { bar: 1, baz: 2 } }
```

This can now be mapped in your form using this syntax:

```gjs
<Form @data={{hash foo=(hash bar=1 baz=2)}} as |form|>
  <form.Object @name="foo" as |object name|>
    <object.Field @name={{name}} @title={{name}} as |field|>
      <field.Input />
    </object.Field>
  </form.Object>
</Form>
```

Objects accept nested collections and nested objects. Just like Collections.

A small addition has also been made to `Collection`, they now support a custom `@tagName`, it's useful if each item of your collection is the row of a table for example.
