[Feature Request] [stdlib] [proposal] Rename `InlineList` to `Array` about mojo

[gryznar]

+1 for such simplification and consistency :)

I don't think we should rename InlineList to Array. Have you seen the original conversation that added the type at #2294 (comment)?

I hadn't seen that specific comment. This is literally the first time I hear that Python has an array type (might have heard once and forgot) and I've been using Python since I'm a kid... people mostly use a list and forget about it (we all know Python isn't for performance), those who care about performance might have code that uses python's array (who? most will have migrated no numpy/use pandas), but most likely in a very easy way to migrate by just using Mojo's List constructor.

I think devs from the following languages might come into Mojo:

• Go: Array as fixed size
• Rust: Array as fixed size
• Zig: Array as fixed size
• Javascript: Array as heterogeneous List
• PHP: Array as heterogeneous List
• Ruby: Array as heterogeneous List
• Java: Array as fixed size
• Python: Array as homogeneous List
• C: Array as fixed size
• C++: Array as fixed size
• Swift: Array as homogeneous List
• C#: Array as fixed size
• Ocaml: Array as fixed size
• Perl: Array as fixed size
• SQL: (DBs that support it) Array as fixed size

Any dev that comes into a language looks for collection types and learns them. InlineList will be a hard one to sell IMO.
