Description

StaticArrays has all of these non-mutating versions of typically mutating methods implemented, which might be a good fit for this package since we have setindex. It would be nice if these were available outside of a dependency on StaticArrays and part of the general array interface.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the StaticArrays non-mutating versions of pop, push, and related methods, then compare them with ArrayInterface's existing setindex support. Define which operations belong in the general array interface and what independent behavior or tests would demonstrate that the feature is complete.
