Native reflection adapters

All *Reflection classes have a toNativeReflection() method that can be used to obtain native PHP reflection adapters. These adapters extend native reflection classes, however they do not trigger autoloading for most of the operations (see table below for details).

use Typhoon\Reflection\TyphoonReflector;

$reflectionClass = TyphoonReflector::build()
    ->reflectClass(MyClass::class)
    ->toNativeReflection();

var_dump($reflectionClass->isInstantiable());

$reflectionMethod = $reflectionClass->getMethod('someMethod');

var_dump($reflectionMethod->getPrototype());
