interpreter: Add a flatten() method to arrays
This allows users to do two things, flatten potentially nested arrays
themselves, and, to safely convert types that may be an array to not an
array.
```meson
x = [meson.get_external_property('may_be_array)].flatten()
```
```meson
x = ['a', ['b', 'c']]
assert(x.flatten() == ['a', 'b', 'c'])
```
