Array.make - transforms list-like data structures into native arrays


Two versions of an **{{Array.make}}** method that handles list-like data structures such as **{{[HTMLCollection]}}**s / **{{[NodeList]}}**s, **{{[String]}}**s or **{{[arguments]}}** -arrays turning them into native array objects.

This firstly implemented version creates an {{Array.make}} that will throw a **{{[TypeError]}}** if it got passed invalid arguments whereas the latter in that case will fail silently.
