/**
* Finds the element in an array that has the minimum value when applying
* the `iteratee` to each element.
*
* @template T - The type of elements in the array.
* @param items The array of elements to search.
* @param [iteratee=identity]
* The criteria used to determine the minimum value.
*  - If a **function** is provided, it extracts a numeric value from each element.
*  - If a **string** is provided, it is treated as a key to extract values from the objects.
*  - If a **[key, value]** pair is provided, it matches elements with the specified key-value pair.
*  - If an **object** is provided, it matches elements that contain the specified properties.
* @returns The element with the minimum value as determined by the `iteratee`.
* @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 }
* minBy([{ a: 1 }, { a: 2 }], 'a'); // Returns: { a: 1 }
* minBy([{ a: 1 }, { a: 2 }], ['a', 1]); // Returns: { a: 2 }
* minBy([{ a: 1 }, { a: 2 }], { a: 1 }); // Returns: { a: 2 }
