Renders a view.

The view to be rendered can be specified in one of the following formats:

- [path alias](guide:concept-aliases) (e.g. "@app/views/site/index");
- absolute path within application (e.g. "//site/index"): the view name starts with double slashes.
The actual view file will be looked for under the [[Application::viewPath|view path]] of the application.
- absolute path within current module (e.g. "/site/index"): the view name starts with a single slash.
The actual view file will be looked for under the [[Module::viewPath|view path]] of the [[Controller::module|current module]].
- relative view (e.g. "index"): the view name does not start with `@` or `/`. The corresponding view file will be
looked for under the [[ViewContextInterface::getViewPath()|view path]] of the view `$context`.
If `$context` is not given, it will be looked for under the directory containing the view currently
being rendered (i.e., this happens when rendering a view within another view).

@param string $view the view name.
@param array $params the parameters (name-value pairs) that will be extracted and made available in the view file.
@param object $context the context to be assigned to the view and can later be accessed via [[context]]
in the view. If the context implements [[ViewContextInterface]], it may also be used to locate
the view file corresponding to a relative view name.
@return string the rendering result
@throws ViewNotFoundException if the view file does not exist.
@throws InvalidCallException if the view cannot be resolved.
