The reflection binder will fallback if a type does not meet collection heuristics, but the source generator did not.
This matches what the refelction binder does, and fixes the baseline diffs (and diagnostics changes) we were seeing for unsupported collection types.

Customer Impact
Configuration Binder source generator cannot bind objects that implement
IEnumerablebut notICollection<>orIDictionary<,>. IOW an enumerable type that's not treated as a collection.Apache Kafka has a package with configuration objects like this that expose their strongly named properties as an
IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<string,string>>: https://github.com/confluentinc/confluent-kafka-dotnet/blob/49f8188eeff4e6a77f9c1bcef68c504e773359f6/src/Confluent.Kafka/Config.cs#L28This type binds fine with the reflection binder, but fails when using the source generator.
Regression
Not a regression, but a blocker for folks wanting to enable the source generator / aot.
Testing
Unit tests added, baseline tests evaluated. No regressions, no changes to existing emitted code. New scenarios added to cover these types. Customer type validated fixed with the change.
Risk
Medium - it's enabling binding of types that were previously considered "not supported". This shouldn't break existing successful usage, but it could cause problems when we start to see types we didn't see before. For this reason we'd like to get this out in RC1 and give a chance for customer feedback.
Risk to release is low. This shouldn't risk the RC1 build / stabilization.
