This allocates an array with `sz` elements once _at compile
time_, places it somewhere into the executable, and uses its
address as the default initializer for the member `arr`. All
instances of `buffer` (with the same template parameters) that
you create and don't change `arr` have it point to the same
memory.
Huh. For some reason I thought in-class initializations like
this were effectively rewritten to occur as a part of the class
ctor. But looking at the docs I guess this actually affects the
format of the static initializer.
