/** | |
* Return the array elements until a selector is matched | |
* @param {Number|String|Function} selector | |
* @return {Array} A new array that goes from the first element to `selector` | |
* | |
* Usage: | |
* deepEqual([1,2,3,4,5].until(4), [1, 2, 3, 4]) | |
* deepEqual(['a','b','c','d','e'].until('c'), ['a', 'b', 'c']) | |
* deepEqual([{t:'a'},{t:'b'},{t:'c'},{t:'d'}].until(function(o){return o.t == 'c';}), [{t:'a'},{t:'b'},{t:'c'}]) | |

* Note: | |
* Array as selector aren't supported for code brevity. Yet type coercion will work (of course). | |
