`salient/collections` provides classes and traits that allow collections of values to be accessed via array-like objects with chainable methods.

- Collections are immutable except when array syntax is used to set or unset items
- Use `Collection` or `ListCollection` with values of any type, or extend them to add type-specific behaviour
- Remix `CollectionTrait`, `ListCollectionTrait`, `ReadOnlyCollectionTrait` and `ReadOnlyArrayAccessTrait` for custom behaviour, e.g. to create a strictly immutable collection class
