Description
Typebinder should support outputting an array of fixed size in TS when using an array of fixed size in Rust, just like we do for tuples.
* When the value is provided as a literal number, this is feasible.
* When the size is provided as a const evaluated by Rust at compile-time, we're essentially doomed. Rewriting `typebinder` from `rust-analyzer` tooling may fix this issue ?

Research direction
Start by inspecting the existing tuple handling in typebinder and how Rust array types are represented when generating TypeScript. Compare literal array sizes with sizes supplied by compile-time constants, and determine what rust-analyzer tooling exposes. Done means fixed-size Rust arrays with literal lengths produce the corresponding TypeScript representation, with the supported limitations documented.
