Hello!
I know this PR is not exactly what you guys would do to fix the issue with polymorph on HOCON, but I made a quick patch to make it work for us.
The problem is that currently Polymorph kinds are treated as Lists and tries to cast it which won't work since Config will keep it as an object.
Another issue is that the getTag will add a value.tag as the parent when trying to get the correct tag from the config (hence why the ugly and not great boolean "isPolymorph").
That said I would love this issue fixed, so please give me suggestions on how to properly fix it and I'd be more than happy to modify the PR to be up to standards!
This fix refers to #1581.
