I wanted to direct access to fixed array bytes. I made some changes to the idl generator to create GetBytes functions following the same naming conventions used for vectors of scalar types. There was not a 'Length' field present to bound the existing index accessor so I added that too. + Add generic GetBytes for fixed length arrays of scalar types + Implement conditional compilation for ENABLE_SPAN_T: - ENABLE_SPAN_T: Returns `Span<T>` using `MemoryMarshal.Cast<byte, T>()` as needed. - Else: Returns `ArraySegment<byte>?` for raw byte access + Added tests reusing arrays_test.fbs definitions + Added const int Length field to support existing index based accessors

@bigjt-dev there are failures at CI, looks like scripts/check_generate_code.py is not happy. |
