As Pascal mentioned one dimensional array slices are supported in Ada by
just indexing using notation A(I .. J) for array A. If you want
non-unity strides, or multi-dimensional slices, or some other fancier
effects, you will need to turn to a library of some kind.
Although as I write this I'm wondering if a subtype with a static
predicate could cover some of those bases. Hmm.
