Basic JavaScript Mapping for Sequences

A Slice sequence maps to a native JavaScript array. This means that the Slice-to-JavaScript compiler does not generate a separate named type for a Slice sequence. It also means that you can take advantage of all the inherent functionality offered by JavaScript's array type. For example:

Slice
sequence<Fruit> FruitPlatter;

We can use the FruitPlatter sequence as shown below:

JavaScript
let platter = [Fruit.Apple];
platter.push(Fruit.Pear);

JavaScript Mapping for Byte Sequences

As an optimization, occurrences of sequence<byte> map to a Uint8Array type, which is more efficient than native arrays for working with binary data.
