Description

* See https://numpy.org/doc/stable/reference/generated/numpy.ndarray.astype.html

Example:

```ts
import { array } from 'vectorious';

const x = array([1, 2, 2.5]);

x.astype('int8')
/*
array([ 1, 2, 2 ], dtype=int8)
*/
```

Research direction

No source files or tests are named. Start by locating the array implementation and existing dtype handling, then compare the requested behavior with NumPy's ndarray.astype documentation. Done means array([1, 2, 2.5]).astype('int8') produces values [1, 2, 2] with dtype int8.
