Currently, given an array:
alias T[3] A;

the default initializer for A, A.init, is T.init. It is done this way
for memory efficiency, as:
a = A.init;
doesn't need to create an array for the rvalue. But it does cause
generic programming problems, especially with the advent of static
arrays now being passed by value rather than by ref.
So, I propose changing A.init from being T.init to being [T.init,
T.init, T.init].
What do you think?
This assert should never fail:
T x;
assert(x is T.init);
(Right now it fails for floats because of NaN - can we fix this too?
"is" should always do byte comparisons.)
