Expected behaviour

Using a fromProviderState matcher in a query parameter value shouldn't return a JsonPath matcher.

The reality is that I wasn't totally sure whether to open the bug on this side of the pact jvm side (for my provider), but I found this note from the V3 path specification, and if I'm reading it right, I think that it's an error on the pact-js side. But maybe there's something else I'm missing to get these things to match up correctly.

So, I think that in the generated pact, I should get something like this:

        "generators": {
          "query": {
            "fooIdentifier": {
              "expression": "${fooIdentifier}",
              "type": "ProviderState"
            }
          }
        },
        "matchingRules": {
          "query": {
            "fooIdentifier": {
              "combine": "AND",
              "matchers": [
                {
                  "match": "type"
                }
              ]
            }
          }
        },

Instead of

        "generators": {
          "query": {
            "$.fooIdentifier[0]": {
              "expression": "${fooIdentifier}",
              "type": "ProviderState"
            }
          }
        },
        "matchingRules": {
          "query": {
            "$.fooIdentifier[0]": {
              "combine": "AND",
              "matchers": [
                {
                  "match": "type"
                }
              ]
            }
          }
        },

If I make this change manually to the pact, then pact-jvm injects the provider state like I would expect.

Actual behaviour

Using json path in the path matchers for query parameters.

Steps to reproduce

Using provider = PactV3({ ... }), have a provider test with something like

provider.given('some state')
   .uponReceiving('a request for all the foos'))))
   .withRequest({
      method: 'GET',
      path: '/api/foos',
      query: {
          fooIdentifier: MatchersV3.fromProviderState('${fooIdentifier}', 'abc123')
      })
     .willRespondWith({
          status: 200
     })

And then do the test and generate the state.
