[fpc-pascal] Generics vs TCollection

[tcoq]

It's also possible to create a generic descendent of TCollection, where the only duplicated code is the property override. This is probably the best of both worlds: reusing the TCollection while moving to generics.
Best regards

...
The difference is mainly that in the case of TCollection(Item) you need to
override the items property; With generics, you can skip this step.
At the expense of copying the whole TCollection code each time you create a
specialized descendent.
