As discussed in #252, there are problems with matching against polymorphic collections.
This fix attempts to apply the PECS rule (producer extends, consumer super) to the Hamcrest IsIterableContaining matcher. In this instance, a collection of items should be treated as a producer according to this rule, while a matcher acts as a consumer. There was some confustion about PECS in the context of collections of matchers, but I'm hoping this change addresses those issues.
I'm keen for others to test this work out
