Re: coccinelle: adjustments for array.cocci?

This reduces duplication in the semantic patch, which is nice.  I think
I tried something like that at the time, but found that it failed to
produce some of the cases in 921d49be86 ("use COPY_ARRAY for copying
arrays", 2019-06-15) for some reason.

I propose to integrate an other solution variant.

* How do you think about to delete questionable transformation rules
  together with increasing the usage of nested disjunctions in this script
  for the semantic patch language?

* Can a single transformation rule become sufficient for the discussed
  change pattern?

Would you like to clarify remaining challenges for pretty-printing
in such use cases?
