What does this PR do?

Currently, when hyper parameters are logged with log_hyperparams the function calls _flatten_dict to collapse the dict to a single level. However, when the config contains a list of dicts, this gets flattened to a single string. Instead I would propose to log the list as [key/0/item, key/1/item] etc.

Fixes #19957

The current hyper parameter logging flattens a config dictionary. However, when a nested element contains a list of dictionaries, it flattens it to a string. This creates indexed sub-elements.

This can be useful for network configs with multiple heads or other similar use cases.
