Type Arrays not Supported

See original GitHub issue

What did you do

Ran jsonschema2md against a schema file that has an array as a value for type. e.g.

What did you expect to happen

The docs to recognize that the type for the object could be either a string or an object.

What happened

The parser returned a message: “Unknown type object,string”

What’s your environment

Operating System: macOS Catalina
node.js version: 10.16.0

Do you have example files:

For this schema

"baseLayers": {
  "type": "array",
  "items": {
    "type": [
      "object",
      "string"
    ],
    "properties": {
      "id": {
        "description": "The name of the layer",
        "type": "string"
      },
      "Factory": {
        "description": "The name of the esrijs module associated with the layer type",
        "type": "string"
      },
      "urlTemplate": {
        "description": "The urlTemplate for the layer. \"{quadWord}\" will be automatically replaced with the appropriate value at runtime.",
        "type": "string"
      }
    },
    "required": [
      "id",
      "Factory",
      "urlTemplate"
    ]
  }
},

I’m getting following Markdown

##### baseLayers Type

Array type: multiple

All items must be of the type: Unknown type `object,string`.

```json
{
  "type": "array",
  "items": {
    "type": ["object", "string"],
    "properties": {
      "id": {
        "description": "The name of the layer",
        "type": "string"
      },
      "Factory": {
        "description": "The name of the esrijs module associated with the layer type",
        "type": "string"
      },
      "urlTemplate": {
        "description": "The urlTemplate for the layer. \"{quadWord}\" will be automatically replaced with the appropriate value at runtime.",
        "type": "string"
      }
    },
