Use Cython's array to back Py_ssize_t[::1]

In `Array`, `Py_ssize_t[::1]` objects are currently backed by CPython
`array`'s with some internal bits expressed in Cython. However these are
not compatible with Python's Limited API and Stable ABI. To address
that, switch to Cython's own`array` type. As this is baked into Cython
and doesn't use anything special, it is compatible with Python's Limited
API and Stable ABI.
