/**
* Finds the element in an array that has the minimum value when applying
* the `getValue` function to each element.
*
* @template T - The type of elements in the array.
* @param {T[]} items The array of elements to search.
* @param {(element: T, index: number, array: readonly T[]) => number} getValue A function that selects a numeric value from each element.
* @returns {T | undefined} The element with the minimum value as determined by the `getValue` function,
* or `undefined` if the array is empty.
* @example
* minBy([{ a: 1 }, { a: 2 }, { a: 3 }], x => x.a); // Returns: { a: 1 }
* minBy([], x => x.a); // Returns: undefined
* minBy(
*   [
*     { name: 'john', age: 30 },
*     { name: 'jane', age: 28 },
*     { name: 'joe', age: 26 },
*   ],
*   x => x.age
* ); // Returns: { name: 'joe', age: 26 }
