  public static Object list2Array(Class<?> targetType, Object src)
  
  Convert src to object of type targetType recursively
  
  Convert src to object of type targetType recursively, but it only converts List to array. If targetType is array type and src is List, new array is created with the size of src and for each element of src, this method will be called recursively with the component type of targetType and the element of src. The returned object is assigned to newly created array. If either targetType is not array or src is not List, simply returns src.
  
  Parameters:
  
  targetType - The target type
  
  src - The src object
  
  Returns:
  
  The converted object
