Telegram Bot services.yaml is incorrect making it impossible to speciufy target

The problem

https://github.com/home-assistant/core/blob/dev/homeassistant/components/telegram_bot/services.yaml#L17 specifies target as object which is incorrect as expected value is actually an int or an array of ints.

It's incorrect for years: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/commit/d37a3cded059d0cde95eb5826ebf42a0e03f97dd but something has changed that now calling service with mismatched data type is throwing an error.

[thomasdelaet]

in services.yaml target is defined as object selector. That should accept both list and dictionary as far as I can see. not sure why it's not working then and what changed suddenly

[thomasdelaet]

I've been looking into websocket_api and telegram_bot components but can't seem to find a change that would trigger such an error
