> Json.createObjectBuilder(Map<String, Object>) throws JsonException when passed a Map who's values are non-scalar types (JsonValue subclasses such as JsonArray/JsonObject are permitted, however).
> An example:
> {code:java}
> @Test
> public void shouldBuildJsonObjectFromMap() {
>     Map<String, Object> map = new HashMap<>();
>     map.put("foo", "bar");
>     map.put("baz", new HashMap<>());
>     map.put("quux", new ArrayList<>());
>     JsonObject build = Json.createObjectBuilder(map).build();
>     assertThat(build.getJsonObject("baz")).isNotNull();
> }
> {code}
> This results in the exception "javax.json.JsonException: Illegal JSON type! name=quux type=class java.util.ArrayList"
> This is not a problem in Yasson. The spec mentions that IllegalArgumentException should be thrown if a value from the map cannot be converted to the corresponding JsonValue, but in this case Maps or Lists should be converted to JsonObject or JsonArray
