function ad_object_to_array in Advertisement 7.3

Turn an object into an array, eventually also turning any embedded object.

This is done because when a object is retrieved from the cache, and a full bootstrap was not performed, class autoloading fails, and the resulting object is incomplete.

Return value

array The resulting array.
