#' Reshape an Array
#'
#' Reshape (reindex) a multi-dimensional array, using row-major (C-style) reshaping
#' semantics by default.
#'
#' This function differs from e.g. `dim(x) <- dim` in a very important way: by
#' default, `array_reshape()` will fill the new dimensions in row-major (`C`-style)
#' ordering, while [dim<-()] will fill new dimensions in column-major
#' (`F`ortran-style) ordering. This is done to be consistent with libraries
#' like NumPy, Keras, and TensorFlow, which default to this sort of ordering when
#' reshaping arrays. See the examples for why this difference may be important.
#'
#' @param x An array
#' @param dim The new dimensions to be set on the array.
#' @param order The order in which elements of `x` should be read during
#'   the rearrangement. `"C"` means elements should be read in row-major
#'   order, with the last index changing fastest; `"F"` means elements should
#'   be read in column-major order, with the first index changing fastest.
#'
#' @examples \dontrun{
#' # let's construct a 2x2 array from a vector of 4 elements
#' x <- 1:4
#'
#' # rearrange will fill the array row-wise
#' array_reshape(x, c(2, 2))
#' #      [,1] [,2]
#' # [1,]    1    2
#' # [2,]    3    4
#' # setting the dimensions 'fills' the array col-wise
#' dim(x) <- c(2, 2)
#' x
#' #      [,1] [,2]
#' # [1,]    1    3
#' # [2,]    2    4
