	When arrays were added they were called arrays. Because the are implemented with Python lists, that language started leaking into talking about Meson types. This is confusing. I've attempted, as much as possible, to move to using one name, array. I picked array because 1) It's the original name used, and 2) what Meson has are more properly arrays as they have a fixed length, while a critical property of lists are the ability to link and unlink them. There are a couple of places where the list language has leaked into the names of keyword arguments. I have not made any attempt to change those, I don't know if it's that useful or not.

2023-07-20	interpreter: deprecate 'jar' value of build_target(target_type)	Dylan Baker
	Jar has a very low set of overlap with other target types, including that jar sources must be .java, and no other target allows .java sources. As such, the difficulty in crafting a useful `build_target` invocation that allows both `jar` and anything else is high, and the usefulness is dubious. Just use `jar()` directly instead. This depends on the changes to make all of the jar() specific keyword arguments be handled by typed_kwargs so that the deprecation messages are correct and consistent.
