public static Object encodeCollection(Collection<?> parameters,
                                      String collectionFormat)
```
    Encodes a collection of query parameters according to the Swagger collection format.
    
    Of the various collection formats defined by Swagger ("csv", "tsv", etc), Feign only natively supports "multi". This utility generates the other format types so it will be properly processed by Feign.
    
    Note, as part of reformatting, it URL encodes the parameters as well.
    
    Parameters:
    
    parameters - The collection object to be formatted. This object will not be changed.
    
    collectionFormat - The Swagger collection format (eg, "csv", "tsv", "pipes"). See the Swagger Spec for more details.
    
    Returns:
    
    An object that will be correctly formatted by Feign.

    The URL encoded string representation of the parameter. If the parameter is null, returns null.
