Right, done.

Array.cc now leverages a template based typesafe container, loosely
based on the STL vector, but using the squid 2 Array sizing logic.

The primary benefits of this change is typesafety ( no void *
typecasts), and storage management (self free on delete or end of
scope).

Secondary benefits include a typesafe iterator for generic programming.

The API is the same as it was before for Array * objects. For use of the
templated class, there are methods on the Vector template that match the
old API.
