    Persistant array simulation include

    This file defines a set of functions for creating
    and manipulating persistant arrays, which are
    implemented as persistant local variables on some
    holder creature.


    Notes:

    * Arrays are dynamic and may be increased in size by just _set_'ing a new
      element
    * There are no restrictions on what is in the array (can have multiple
      types in the same array)
    * Arrays start at index 0
