Upgrade to 2.11.3 (form 2.11.2) causes Configured `PolymorphicTypeValidator` (of type `com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsontype.BasicPolymorphicTypeValidator`) denied resolution

Describe the bug After upgrading to 2.11.3 from 2.11.2, I receive the following exception:

Caused by: com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.InvalidTypeIdException: Could not resolve type id 'org.jobrunr.jobs.context.JobDashboardLogger$JobDashboardLogLines' as a subtype of `java.lang.Object`: Configured `PolymorphicTypeValidator` (of type `com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.jsontype.BasicPolymorphicTypeValidator`) denied resolution

Version information Which Jackson version(s) was this for? 2.11.3 (2.11.2 worked).

To Reproduce If you have a way to reproduce this with:

1. Clone repository https://github.com/jobrunr/jobrunr
2. Run tests in core/src/test/java/org/jobrunr/utils/mapper -> all tests green
3. In platform/build.gradle update the jackson dependency from 2.11.2 to 2.11.3.
4. Comment lines to throw exception about incompatible Jackson version in org.jobrunr.utils.mapper.jackson.JacksonJsonMapper (lines 30-32)
5. Run tests in core/src/test/java/org/jobrunr/utils/mapper -> Jackson related tests are red

The analysis of @kupci is correct - it is related to #2840.

Instead of using the PolymorphicTypeValidator below, I’m now using the LaissezFaireSubTypeValidator.instance (an excellent name by the way 😄 ).

 ...
 .activateDefaultTypingAsProperty(BasicPolymorphicTypeValidator.builder()
                                .allowIfBaseType(JobState.class)
                                .allowIfBaseType(Map.class)
                                .allowIfBaseType(JobContext.Metadata.class)
                                .build(),

But I don’t understand why this would fail as the JobDashboardLogger$JobDashboardLogLines implements JobContext.Metadata. Any idea why my PolymorphicTypeValidator is not correct?

I suspect the issue may have been due to validator not being registered; closing unless new information is uncovered.
