This is a nifty idea.  Some specific requests:

1. Please merge this into the existing STLExtras.h header.  I don't  
think we need to introduce a new header just for these little helpers.

2. All the .cpp files already are 'using namespace llvm', so they  
don't need the llvm:: qualifier.

3. Removing the qualifiers make it non-obvious what these do.  Please  
rename them to array_endof and array_lengthof.

I agree with you that this makes the code significantly nicer,  
particularly for endof :)
