/** Try to access the value of a specific type stored in an Any.

    In trying to obtain a value, the same set of conversions as supported by
    ">>=" are considered.

    The returned object is a proxy.  Proxies can be either positive or negative.
    Each proxy can be contextually converted to bool, yielding true iff the
    proxy is positive.  For a positive proxy P representing a value of requested
    type T, for any T other than void, the expression *P yields that value of
    type T.  (Technically, the proxy is either a plain pointer or a
    std::optional, depending on whether a plain pointer into the given Any can
    be returned for the specified type.)

    @attention A proxy returned from this function must not outlive the
    corresponding Any passed into this function (as it may constitute a pointer
    into the Any's internals).  That is the reason why this function is
    restricted to lvalue arguments (i.e., to non-temporary Any objects), to
    avoid misuses like
    @code
      css::uno::Any f();

      if (auto p = o3tl::tryAccess<css::beans::NamedValue>(f())) {
        return p->Name;
      }
    @endcode

    @note Ideally this would be a public member function of css::uno::Any (at
    least conditional on LIBO_INTERNAL_ONLY, as it requires C++11).  However, as
    std::optional (which would be needed to implement the proxies) is only
    available since C++14, we need to use std::optional for now.  But To not
    make every entity that includes <com/sun/star/uno/Any.hxx> depend on
    boost_headers, keep this here for now.

    @tparam T  the C++ representation of a UNO type that can be contained in a
    UNO ANY (i.e., any UNO type other than ANY itself).  The legacy C++
    representations sal_Bool, cppu::UnoVoidType, cppu::UnoUnsignedShortType,
    cppu::UnoCharType, and cppu::UnoSequenceType are not supported.  Must be a
    complete type or void.

    @param any  an Any value.

    @return a positive proxy for the value of the specified type obtained from
    the given Any, or a negative proxy if no such value can be obtained.
