openArray (#19035)openArray
When assigning constant output to a seq, and then passing that static seq to other functions that take `openArray`, the compiler may end up producing errors, as it does not know how to convert `static[seq[T]]` to `openArray[T]`. By ignoring the `static` wrapper on the type for the purpose of determining data memory location and length, this gets resolved cleanly. Unfortunately, it is relatively tricky to come up with a minimal example, as there are followup problems from the failing conversion, e.g., this may lead to `internal error: inconsistent environment type`, instead of the relevant `openArrayLoc` error message. (cherry picked from commit 490c422)
