Description

AvroRpcWorkflowManager only accepts a map of String:

// Ex: When creating a dynamic workflow
@Override
public String executeDynamicWorkflow(List<String> taskIds, Map<String, String> metadata) throws AvroRemoteException;

This becomes a problem when the metadata fields have a list of values. In XmlRpcWorkflowManager, this was like that and Avro version should behave the same to be compatible with other components.
