arraysMatch(array1, array2): boolean

If array1 and array2 match, returns true.
It automatically handles checking nested arrays.

How the matching is done:
If (array1 === array2), returns true.
Else, it tries element-by-element matching:
if array1[i] === array2[i] for every i in array1 and array2, it's a match.
If array1[i] and array2[i] are both arrays of equal length, they're passed
into a recursive function call.

Examples

arraysMatch([], []); // true

arraysMatch(['h', 'j'],  ['h', 'j']); // true

arraysMatch(['h', 'j'],  ['h', 'j', 'k']); // false

arraysMatch([1, 2, [3]], [1, 2, [3]]); // true

let obj = {prop: 1};
arraysMatch([obj], [{prop:1}]); // false

arraysMatch([obj], [obj]); // true

let obj2 = obj;
arraysMatch([obj], [obj2]); // true
