[N]?T arrays were corrupted: a positional literal .{ null, 7 } stored
bare T/null elements into {T,i1} optional slots because array elements
were never coerced (getStructFields is empty for an array, so the
i<struct_fields.len field-coercion gate never fired). A present element
then read back as absent and direct indexing segfaulted.
lowerStructLiteral's positional branch now computes array_elem_ty for
array/vector targets and coerces each element to it; lowerArrayLiteral
generalizes its slice-only coercion to coerce every element via
coerceToType (layout-aware: scalar->{T,i1}, pointer-sentinel->one-word,
array->slice, concrete->protocol). Verified by 3 adversarial reviews,
suite 780/0.
Regression: examples/optionals/0913-optionals-array-of-optionals.sx.
Filed adjacent pre-existing bugs: 0173 (typed .[null,..] element), 0174
(tuple positional-element coercion), 0175 (positional struct literal
variable element zeroed).
