Description

The stdlib has impls for arrays up to size 32, could we replicate that here? Or perhaps use the new const_generics to work with any size array?

Research direction

Start by locating the crate's current array implementations and compare their supported sizes with the Rust standard library's implementations up to size 32. Decide whether extending the existing implementations or using const generics fits the crate, and verify that arrays larger than size 20 can be written correctly.
