Ambiguous error message: "Expected object but got object" when passing an array

[Lior Chen]

I got this error when accidentally passing an array in package.json.

It happens because the "but got..." uses typeof value, which returns "object" for arrays.
Maybe instead of using "typeof" for the error message, using Object.prototype.toString.call(value) would be better? or something else which would distinguish an array from an object..

Sounds like a small problem but it took me a while to find my package.json error, due to the unclear error message.

Yeah, this is super annoying I agree.
