Feature #9239: Array#to_h ignores flat arrays
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9239#change-43749

My understanding was that the newly introduced `Array#to_h` was to be equivalent to `Hash.[]`. But when I give a flat array, it returns an empty hash:

    [:a, :b].to_h # => {}
    [:a].to_h     # => {}

I expected `{:a => :b}` for the first example, and `ArgumentError: odd number of arguments for Hash` for the second example, as is with `Hash[]`. Was it intended to be different? If so, why is that the case? Even if it is to be different, it should at least raise an error when a flat array is given.
