/**
 * Create an array of numbers (positive and/or negative) progressing from `start`
 * up to but not including `end` by advancing by `step`.
 *
 * If `start` is less than `end` a zero-length range is created unless a negative `step` is specified.
 *
 * Certain values for `start` and `end` (eg. NaN/undefined/null) are currently coerced to 0;
 * for forward compatibility make sure to pass in actual numbers.
 * 
 * @example
 * NumberArrayStep(4);
 * // => [0, 1, 2, 3]
 *
 * NumberArrayStep(1, 5);
 * // => [1, 2, 3, 4]
 *
 * NumberArrayStep(0, 20, 5);
 * // => [0, 5, 10, 15]
 *
 * NumberArrayStep(0, -4, -1);
 * // => [0, -1, -2, -3]
 *
 * NumberArrayStep(1, 4, 0);
 * // => [1, 1, 1]
 *
 * NumberArrayStep(0);
 * // => []
 *
 * @function Phaser.Utils.Array.NumberArrayStep
 * @since 3.0.0

 * @param {number} [start=0] - The start of the range.
 * @param {number} [end=null] - The end of the range.
