Updated CHANGELOG.md on "2025-02-07 17:54:47"

* Support for sub_inputs in extra plugins

* fix: properly handle lists as TOML arrays

- Updated the Jinja template to detect and serialize lists using |to_json,
  ensuring Telegraf interprets them correctly (e.g. names = ["item1","item2"]).
- Removed fallback logic for single items, so we consistently treat all sub_input
  values as lists of dictionaries.
