Summary:
This check flags all array subscriptions on static arrays and
std::arrays that either have a non-compile-time-constant index or are
out of bounds.
Dynamic accesses into arrays are difficult for both tools and humans to
validate as safe. array_view is a bounds-checked, safe type for
accessing arrays of data. at() is another alternative that ensures
single accesses are bounds-checked. If iterators are needed to access an
array, use the iterators from an array_view constructed over the array.
This rule is part of the "Bounds safety" profile of the C++ Core
Guidelines, see
