> The Converter specification [says in 707.4.3.1|https://osgi.org/specification/osgi.cmpn/7.0.0/util.converter.html#util.converter-arrays.collections] that null should be converted to an empty array, however the current implementation converts to an empty `Object[]` regardless of the target type, for example a `byte[]`. This is clearly wrong as the returned object cannot be assigned to the target type!
