/**
 * Creates an array schema that can be used to construct gpu buffers.
 * Describes arrays with fixed-size length, storing elements of the same type.
 *
 * The only decoration allowed on element types is `d.location`. Decorators like
 * `d.align` and `d.size` cannot be applied directly — wrap them in a struct instead,
 * e.g. `d.arrayOf(d.struct({ value: d.align(16, d.u32) }), n)`.
 *
 * @example
 * const LENGTH = 3;
 * const array = d.arrayOf(d.u32, LENGTH);
 *
 * If `elementCount` is not specified, a partially applied function is returned.
 * @example
 * const array = d.arrayOf(d.vec3f);
 * //    ^? (n: number) => WgslArray<d.Vec3f>
 *
 * @param elementType The type of elements in the array.
 * @param elementCount The number of elements in the array.
 * @throws If `elementType` is decorated with anything other than `d.location`.
