Description

We have a model which employs Sets. The JPAExpandCallback seems to be expecting Lists for collections.

The newly discovered "odata-debug" made finding this issue very easy.

A diff of the code changes for a quick fix are below. Because I ran into this previously elsewhere, I wonder if a cleaner way to handle the collections has already been added somewhere in the code base.
