Describe the bug

I have a Minimal API with the following endpoint:

app.MapPost("/api/documents", ([FromForm] string[] values) =>
{
    return TypedResults.Ok();
});

When I run the project, I get the following exception:

An unhandled exception has occurred while executing the request.
      System.InvalidOperationException: TryParse method found on string with incorrect format. Must be a static method with format
      bool TryParse(string, IFormatProvider, out string)
      bool TryParse(string, out string)
      but found
      static Boolean TryParse(System.ReadOnlySpan`1[System.Char], System.IFormatProvider, System.String ByRef)

If I try with other types, like int[], it works correctly.

Exceptions (if any)
