Fix issue where array params are sometimes omitted when `array_use_braces` is true

[olivier-thatch]

Fixes #952.

The fix consists of removing the [] suffix at the end of a parameter's name if the parameter is an array and it's a body param.

This fix is very hacky: ideally, [] shouldn't be added in the first place. But I don't think that can be achieved without significantly refactoring the code.

@dblock @numbata Curious if you have any thoughts on this approach.

Hi @olivier-thatch, a quick fix for this PR could be:

diff --git a/lib/grape-swagger/doc_methods/move_params.rb b/lib/grape-swagger/doc_methods/move_params.rb
index c8417ce..12c6477 100644

+          definition[:required].push(*value).uniq!
         end
 
         def build_body_parameter(name, options)

I considered using a Set.new for definition[:required] to enforce uniqueness, but that would change the interface (as example, Set doesn’t support .push) and could introduce side effects for other grape-swagger-* gems.

I looked more closely at the PR and noticed we have incorrect behavior for nested arrays. The type Array[Array[String]] collapses into String, so document_array_param only ever sees one dimension. As a result, a declaration like requires :matrix, type: Array[Array[String]] produces { type: 'array', items: { type: 'string' } }, which loses the inner array.

We need to either fix this to properly support multi-dimensional arrays or clearly document that they aren’t supported.
