  @doc """
  Returns a tuple of native Elixir values from a `RDF.Statement` of RDF terms.

  Returns `nil` if one of the components of the given tuple is not convertible via `RDF.Term.value/1`.

  The optional second argument allows to specify a custom mapping with a function
  which will receive a tuple `{statement_position, rdf_term}` where
  `statement_position` is one of the atoms `:subject`, `:predicate`, `:object` or
  `:graph_name`, while `rdf_term` is the RDF term to be mapped. When the given
  function returns `nil` this will be interpreted as an error and will become
  the overhaul result of the `values/2` call.
