class Grape::Validations::Types::PrimitiveCoercer
Coerces the given value to a type defined via a type
argument during initialization. When strict
is true, it doesn’t coerce a value but check that it has the proper type.

- MAPPING
- STRICT_MAPPING

This method maintains logic which was defined by Virtus. For example, dry-types is ok to convert an array or a hash to a string, it is supported, but Virtus wouldn’t accept it. So, this method only exists to not introduce breaking changes.

Dry-Types treats an empty string as invalid. However, Grape
considers an empty string as absence of a value and coerces it into nil. See a discussion there github.com/ruby-grape/grape/pull/2045
