Nested MultiParameter Attributes not converted

[devpost-mzheng]

Dates that are nested don't seem to be converted from multi params to a date. For example

  include Reform::Form::MultiParameterAttributes
  
  property :something_nested do
    property :some_date, multi_params: true

It looks like it skips over the logic to convert the params to date because the nested params come in as type ActionController::Parameters and not as a Hash

I was able to fix this in a forked branch by doing

      params.each do |attribute, value|
        if value.respond_to?(:to_hash) #instead of value.is_a?(Hash)
          params[attribute] = call(value) # TODO: #validate should only handle local form params.
        elsif matches = attribute.match(/^(\w+)\(.i\)$/)
          date_attribute = matches[1]
          date_attributes[date_attribute] = params_to_date(
            params.delete("#{date_attribute}(1i)"),
            params.delete("#{date_attribute}(2i)"),
            params.delete("#{date_attribute}(3i)"),
            params.delete("#{date_attribute}(4i)"),
            params.delete("#{date_attribute}(5i)")
          )
        end
      end

Any thoughts on a better way to do this or perhaps I am missing some options?

We might have to add this check, then. Thanks!

The real solution here is to push the Formular gem since we can ditch this entire hack, then.
