Three-dimensional array
#14

_PRESERVE works only with monodimensional array... 
moreover it is the exact duplicate of _PRESERVE of QB7.1 / QB PDS

This is for sanity reasons. Otherwise a programmer "for hobby" is going to want to change the extent of one of the dimensions as well which is a nightmare to maintain on the developer's side.

On BASIC PDS v7.1 the helper keyword did not carry an underscore, it was imported as if it were an original QB64 keyword.

Of course there is a way to get around the limitation, but have to get away from the convenience of declaring and using arrays. Must create a _MEM buffer, extend it as necessary and do the dimensional calculations to access bits of data. Not pretty but doable.
