Array handling --------------  Arrays are special, because unlike other property types, they have standard mutator functions (`push`/`pop`/`splice`/etc.) and it's desirable to trigger a change notification whenever one of those mutator functions is invoked.  Traditionally, Knockout handles this by putting special versions of `push`/`pop`/etc. on observable arrays that mutate the underlying array and then trigger a notification. That approach doesn't work for Knockout-ES5 because properties now return the underlying arrays, so the mutator runs in the context of the underlying array, not any particular observable:  // Operates on the underlying array value myModel.someCollection.push('New value');  To solve this, Knockout-ES5 detects array values, and modifies them as follows: 1. Associates a hidden subscribable with each array instance that it encounters 2. Intercepts standard mutators (`push`/`pop`/etc.) and makes them trigger the subscribable Then, for model properties whose values are arrays, the property's underlying observable subscribes to the array subscribable, so it can trigger a change notification after mutation. After each array mutation, fires a notification on the given subscribable
