/**
 * Takes any input and guarantees an array back.
 *
 * - Converts array-like objects (e.g. `arguments`, `Set`) to a real array.
 * - Converts `undefined` to an empty array.
 * - Converts any another other, singular value (including `null`, objects and iterables other than `Set`) into an array containing that value.
 * - Ignores input which is already an array.
 *
 * @module array-back
 * @example
 * > const arrayify = require('array-back')
 *
 * > arrayify(undefined)
 * []
 *
 * > arrayify(null)
 * [ null ]
 *
 * > arrayify(0)
 * [ 0 ]
 *
 * > arrayify([ 1, 2 ])
 * [ 1, 2 ]
 *
 * > arrayify(new Set([ 1, 2 ]))
 * [ 1, 2 ]
