  /**
   * Retrieves a value from a nested array with variable depth.
   *
   * This helper function should be used when the depth of the array element
   * being retrieved may vary (that is, the number of parent keys is variable).
   * It is primarily used for form structures and renderable arrays.
   *
   * Without this helper function the only way to get a nested array value with
   * variable depth in one line would be using eval(), which should be avoided:
   * @code
   * // Do not do this! Avoid eval().
   * // May also throw a PHP notice, if the variable array keys do not exist.
   * eval('$value = $array[\'' . implode("']['", $parents) . "'];");
   * @endcode
   *
   * Instead, use this helper function:
   * @code
   * $value = NestedArray::getValue($form, $parents);
   * @endcode
   *
   * A return value of NULL is ambiguous, and can mean either that the requested
   * key does not exist, or that the actual value is NULL. If it is required to
   * know whether the nested array key actually exists, pass a third argument
   * that is altered by reference:
   * @code
   * $key_exists = NULL;
   * $value = NestedArray::getValue($form, $parents, $key_exists);
   * if ($key_exists) {
   *   // Do something with $value.
   * }
   * @endcode
   *
   * However if the number of array parent keys is static, the value should
   * always be retrieved directly rather than calling this function.
   * For instance:
   * @code
   * $value = $form['signature_settings']['signature'];
   * @endcode
   *
   * @param array $array
   *   The array from which to get the value.
   * @param array $parents
   *   An array of parent keys of the value, starting with the outermost key.
   * @param bool $key_exists
   *   (optional) If given, an already defined variable that is altered by
   *   reference.
   *
   * @return mixed
   *   The requested nested value. Possibly NULL if the value is NULL or not all
   *   nested parent keys exist. $key_exists is altered by reference and is a
   *   Boolean that indicates whether all nested parent keys exist (TRUE) or not
   *   (FALSE). This allows to distinguish between the two possibilities when
   *   NULL is returned.
   *
   * @see NestedArray::setValue()
   * @see NestedArray::unsetValue()
