Constructor fails to create zero-dimensional StrideArray

[cafaxo]

Zero dimensional stride arrays are somewhat supported:

julia> x = StrideArray(zeros(1))
1-element StrideArray{Float64, 1, (1,), Tuple{Int64}, Tuple{Nothing}, Tuple{StaticInt{1}}, Vector{Float64}}:
 0.0

julia> view(x, 1)
0-dimensional StrideArray{Float64, 0, (), Tuple{}, Tuple{}, Tuple{}, Vector{Float64}}:
0.0

But when I try to use the constructor, it does not work:

julia> StrideArray(zeros())
ERROR: ArgumentError: Cannot call tail on an empty tuple.

I am somewhat new to open source development. I don't know if it is appropriate to open so many issues. Should I instead try to open pull requests?

Tagging onto this one: also the support of strides on zero-dimensional arrays is broken.

julia> x = StrideArray(zeros(1))
1-element StrideArray{Float64, 1, (1,), Tuple{Int64}, Tuple{Nothing}, Tuple{StaticInt{1}}, Vector{Float64}}:
 0.0

julia> y = view(x, 1)
0-dimensional StrideArray{Float64, 0, (), Tuple{}, Tuple{}, Tuple{}, Vector{Float64}}:
0.0

julia> strides(y)

Pull requests are more likely to be acted on.

julia> strides(y)
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching _strides_nobit(::Tuple{}, ::Tuple{})

Should probably define a method for static_strides on 0-dim PtrArrays.
