Try to convert a value, returning null if no converter handles it
Unlike convert(), this method doesn't throw. Use the $found out-parameter to distinguish between "converted to null" and "no converter found".
This method also checks fallback handlers, which has() does not.
$result = $registry->tryConvert($value, SomeEnum::class, 'sql-value', $found);
if ($found) {
// $result is the converted value (may be null if converter returned null)
}
