Why not "int[auto] arr = [1, 2, 3]" ?
IMHO auto keyword is less ambiguous than $.
Someone else could misunderstand `auto` to mean partial type
deduction on associative array, e.g. `int[auto] arr = ["Hello":
ubyte(1), "World": ubyte(2)];`.
Personally, I think `$` is very natural here, but I also didn't
consider `auto` before.
$ is very much appropriate imho, as it implies the length of the
array. auto suggests a type (or storage class) and has only
barely a link with arrays.
