What does this PR do?
Currently, when hyper parameters are logged with log_hyperparams the function calls _flatten_dict to collapse the dict to a single level. However, when the config contains a list of dicts, this gets flattened to a single string. Instead I would propose to log the list as [key/0/item, key/1/item] etc.
Fixes #19957
Before submitting
Only a minor change
This does not require any changes just makes the hyper parameter logging slightly nicer
