auto arr = [1, 2, 3] should be a static array, not a GC allocated array

```d
   import std : sa = staticArray;
   auto sar = [1, 2, 3].sa; // really, looks short&easy
```

Why can't we use this with the byte type?

```d
   auto arr = sa!(long, [1, 2, 3]);
   assert(is(typeof(arr) : long[3])); // ok

   //auto noCompile = sa!(byte, [1, 2, 3]);
```
