Under HXCPP_CHECK_POINTER, a call on a null array in a cppia script throws Null Object Reference: a typed array's builtins check the array first, and so do Array<Dynamic>'s element access, pop, slice and the other calls that return an object. push, contains, remove, indexOf, lastIndexOf, join, toString, sort, insert and unshift did not. They called through the null, which ended the process with a segmentation fault, both interpreted and under the JIT, since the JIT calls the same code for them.

var a:Array<Dynamic> = null;
try a.push(1) catch (e:Dynamic) trace(e); // segfault instead of Null Object Reference

ArrayBuiltinAny now checks the array with CPPIA_CHECK in these calls, as the others do, and its genCode checks it with genNullReferenceExceptionCheck once it has it, as the typed arrays' code does. Without HXCPP_CHECK_POINTER, nothing changes.

Tests: test/regression/CppiaNullDynamicArray calls each of them, plus pop and an element read, on a null Array<Dynamic>, interpreted and then under the JIT. Before, the first call ended the host. All test/regression/Cppia* cases pass.
