The `explode` field defaults to `false` with `style: deepObject`, but the behavior of that combination is undefined in 3.0 and 3.1. For 3.2, define it to behave the same as `style: deepObject, explode: true`, which maintains compatibility (by defining previously undefined behavior rather than changing the defined default value) and produces intuitive results.

style: deepObject.
