Convert a value to target type
Finds the most specific converter and performs the conversion. Throws if no suitable converter is found.
Use has() to check if a converter exists before calling convert():
if ($registry->has($value, ResponseInterface::class)) {
$response = $registry->convert($value, ResponseInterface::class);
}
// With named source type for database hydration
$datetime = $registry->convert($dbString, \DateTimeImmutable::class, 'sql-value');
