/**
 * Parameter converter for upcasting entity IDs to full objects.
 *
 * This is useful in cases where the dynamic elements of the path can't be
 * auto-determined; for example, if your path refers to multiple of the same
 * type of entity ("example/{node1}/foo/{node2}") or if the path can act on any
 * entity type ("example/{entity_type}/{entity}/foo").
 *
 * In order to use it you should specify some additional options in your route:
 * @code
 * example.route:
 *   path: foo/{example}
 *   options:
 *     parameters:
 *       example:
 *         type: entity:node
 * @endcode
 *
 * If you want to have the entity type itself dynamic in the url you can
 * specify it like the following:
 * @code
 * example.route:
 *   path: foo/{entity_type}/{example}
 *   options:
 *     parameters:
 *       example:
 *         type: entity:{entity_type}
 * @endcode
