* Add -ARRAY, the classic command-line array, as AutoCAD lays it out
Rectangular arrays move the copy in row r and column c by (c * column distance, r * row
distance), asking for a distance only when there is more than one row or column; polar arrays
space n items 360/n apart around a full circle and fill/(n - 1) otherwise, turning the copies or
moving them with the group 10 point of the object selected last. The copies are separate
objects; the type asked defaults to the one used last.

* -ARRAY: refuse an unknown type and oversized arrays before making transforms
The JSON form errors on a type other than rectangular or polar, and checks MAXARRAY before the
copies' transforms are made; the command line bounds the columns by the rows (CodeRabbit).

* LISP: entity names answer prompts that pick one object
`command` fed an entity name, alone or as `entsel` returns it (name and
point), to the running command as a pick. Prompts that pick a single
object with a point (MEASURE, DIVIDE, LENGTHEN, PEDIT, BREAK, TRIM and
EXTEND in Standard mode, FILLET, OFFSET, REVCLOUD Object, dimensions…)
only take points, so routines got "Invalid input" or nothing at all.
At such a prompt the name is now entered as its point, and a pick at
exactly that point finds the named object (Session::pick_object), so
the point says where on it, as in AutoCAD. A bare name stands at the
object's DXF group 10 point, the point AutoCAD picks it at: a line's
start, a circle's or an arc's centre, a polyline's first vertex. At an
arc's centre MEASURE runs from the arc's end, as AutoCAD does.

* Keep a named object for its own input and its own space
A name given at a prompt picking one object now holds only while that
input is taken: a later pick at the same point finds what lies there.
A name for an object in another space picks nothing, instead of the
object under its point in the current space.
