Treading 3D array as 4d array about enoki HOT 4 CLOSED

Dear @skgbanga,

that's a good point! This kind of very strict checking is probably a fairly narrow use case, but it would be good if there was a way to disable the Enoki optimization in such a case.

What I would suggest is to introduce a new enum ENOKI_DISABLE_3D_SPECIAL_CASE and wrapping the partial template overloads at the end of array_sse.h, array_avx[2].h with a corresponding #if !defined(..).

Best,
Wenzel

@wjakob

For now, I have initialized all my enoki arrays with sensible defaults.(even the 4th element) because I do want to use that optimization.

I will submit a PR separately with your recommendation though.
