Backend: Add array to CI component inputs JSON schema validation

The Problem

Array type CI inputs are now available, but users receive an error when trying to publish a component using array type inputs with a default. This is because the JSON schema validation on the inputs:default field for Ci::Catalog::Resources::Component does not allow arrays

The Solution

Update the JSON schema validation to accept arrays

Hi @marknuzzo @dhershkovitch, I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that array type inputs have been merged. Yay! But…the bad news is I missed an update to a JSON schema validation, so users trying to publish a component with an array type input that has a default value will get an error If only our CI JSON schemas had a single source of truth…well, maybe some day

I've made this issue to fix the bug, and I'll try to get a fix merged today

@dhershkovitch @marknuzzo update! The fix is set to be merged: !147681 (merged)

Thank you @avielle

Hey @avielle,

Will this also fix GitLab pipelines that include a component with an array as input?

I am getting the following error when the GitLab pipeline is ran:

This GitLab CI configuration is invalid: `code.douglasparker.dev/douglasparker/test-component/echo@~latest`: header:spec:inputs:test input type unknown value: array.

Hey @avielle, just checking in to see if I need to make a new bug report or not- Please let me know.

Hi @douglasparker, it's not clear to me what's wrong from the error you posted, so please make another bug report and we'll triage it
