Finds all matches of a key throughout the hierarchy and returns them as a single flattened
array of unique values. If any of the matched values are arrays, they're flattened and
included in the results. This is called an
[array merge lookup](https://docs.puppetlabs.com/hiera/latest/lookup_types.html#array-merge).

The `hiera_array` function takes up to three arguments, in this order:

1. A string key that Hiera searches for in the hierarchy. **Required**.
2. An optional default value to return if Hiera doesn't find anything matching the key.
    * If this argument isn't provided and this function results in a lookup failure, Puppet
    fails with a compilation error.
3. The optional name of an arbitrary
[hierarchy level](https://docs.puppetlabs.com/hiera/latest/hierarchy.html) to insert at the
top of the hierarchy. This lets you temporarily modify the hierarchy for a single lookup.
    * If Hiera doesn't find a matching key in the overriding hierarchy level, it continues
    searching the rest of the hierarchy.

**Example**: Using `hiera_array`

~~~ yaml
# Assuming hiera.yaml
# :hierarchy:
#   - web01.example.com
#   - common

# Assuming common.yaml:
# users:
#   - 'cdouglas = regular'
#   - 'efranklin = regular'

# Assuming web01.example.com.yaml:
# users: 'abarry = admin'
~~~

~~~ puppet
$allusers = hiera_array('users', undef)

# $allusers contains ["cdouglas = regular", "efranklin = regular", "abarry = admin"].
~~~

You can optionally generate the default value with a
[lambda](https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/lang_lambdas.html) that
takes one parameter.

**Example**: Using `hiera_array` with a lambda

~~~ puppet
# Assuming the same Hiera data as the previous example:

$allusers = hiera_array('users') | $key | { "Key \'${key}\' not found" }

# $allusers contains ["cdouglas = regular", "efranklin = regular", "abarry = admin"].
# If hiera_array couldn't match its key, it would return the lambda result,
# "Key 'users' not found".
~~~

`hiera_array` expects that all values returned will be strings or arrays. If any matched
value is a hash, Puppet raises a type mismatch error.
