Description
For example, if the Insert Positions parameter $vValue is "7;10" _ArrayInsert fails with Error code 3.
The reason is that when _ArrayInsert compares the insertion points to check that they are in ascending order, what it compares are the string representation of the numbers and guess what: "7" is NOT less than "10"

The old chestnut of numbers being converted to strings and then compared, leading to invalid comparisons. Easy to fix - and I will check the other _Array functions to see if there are similar errors hiding away.

Fixed _Insert and also amended _Delete, although the latter does not depend on ascending indices. If you would like to try the amended library before I commit it please PM me and I will let you have a copy.
