DynamicField doesn't save as a ListField

[dssecret]

Updating a DynamicField of a list does not update using .save() or .cascade_save() when the list is updated using .append().

Reproducible Example

class ExampleModel(DynamicDocument):
    value = DynamicField()

Actual Result

>>> example = ExampleModel(value=[])
>>> example.value.append(1)
>>> example.save()
<ExampleModel: ExampleModel object>
>>> example.value
[1]
>>> example.reload()
<ExampleModel: ExampleModel object>
>>> example.value
[]

Expected Result

>>> example = ExampleModel(value=[])
>>> example.value.append(1)
>>> example.save()
<ExampleModel: ExampleModel object>
>>> example.value
[1]
>>> example.reload()
<ExampleModel: ExampleModel object>
>>> example.value
[1]

Work-Around

>>> example = ExampleModel(value=[])
>>> example.value.append(1)
>>> example.save()
<ExampleModel: ExampleModel object>
>>> a = list(example.value)
>>> a.append(1)
>>> example.value = a
>>> example.save()
>>> example.value
[1]
>>> example.reload()
<ExampleModel: ExampleModel object>
>>> example.value
[1]
