Confusing type of ImageData.data

[OndrejSpanel]

The ImageData.data is defined and documented as follows:

scala-js-dom/dom/src/main/scala/org/scalajs/dom/ImageData.scala

Lines 23 to 26 in 7d0508c

	/** Is a Uint8ClampedArray representing a one-dimensional array containing the data in the RGBA order, with integer
	* values between 0 and 255 (included).
	*/
	def data: js.Array[Int] = js.native

I am confused: is the type Uint8ClampedArray, or js.Array[Int]? Or are those types interchangeable somehow? If they are, perhaps the documentation could clarify how.

Hmm. I don't think those are interchangeable. Seems like a bug to me.

Yes, we should use this instead.

I guess the interface of both JS types is similar enough, they both contain length and bracket access, therefore one can perform some basic operations on TypedArray thinking it is a normal array.
