Sensible wrapper for Object.assign().
Object.assign() can return surprising results when a value to be modified is not an object.
The point of safe-object-assign is to allow users to pass anything,
- without blowing up,
- retain the initial value if it is not an object or array,
- obtain a modified copy of the initial object or array to be updated,
- mixing only objects or arrays into the new model.
