Polish documentation on @ConfigurationProperties getters and setters

 - Correct typo (coercable -> coercible)
 - Update description to reflect that Spring 4.1.5 supports the
   expansion of array properties and and a test that verifies the
   behaviour

-NOTE: The getters and setters are advisable, since binding is via
-standard Java Beans property descriptors, just like in Spring
-MVC. They are mandatory for immutable types or those that are directly
-coercable from `String`. As long as they are initialized maps and
-collections need a getter but not necessarily a setter, for instance,
-since they can be mutated by the binder. Maps and collections can also
-be created (if there is a setter) and expanded (in any case), but
-arrays can not (so normally arrays need to be bound to a
-comma-separated value, but lists can be bound to individual
-elements). Nested POJO properties can also be created (so a setter is
-not mandatory) if they have a default constructor, or a constructor
-accepting a single value that can be coerced from String. Some people
-use Project Lombok to add getters and setters automatically.
