Values yaml schema expects String for oidcConfiguration.customParams which causes upgrades to fail

Description

While upgrading from 1.2.1 to 1.4.1, I configured the new oidcConfiguration section in the authorizer section of the values file (we use KeyCloak to provide SSO). I am using the default value of "" for customParams. On upgrade, the run-db-migrations init pod of the new container fails due to an unexpected type of String for the customParams field (see the full exception in the attached logs).

I have tried changing the customParams field to {} to match the expected type of "LinkedHashMap", however the helm upgrade command fails because the values schema expects a string for customParams. A value of "{}" yields the same error as a value of "".

Steps to reproduce

Install version 1.2.1 of OpenMetadata on Kubernetes with a "custom-oidc" authentication provider and a clientType of "public".
Update to version 1.4.1 with a client type of "confidential" and a configured oidcConfiguration section (at least "enabled: true").

Same error for me. I can't deploy OpenMetadata with oidc authentication enabled.
