Description

WordVector#toDoubleArray and WordVector#toFloatArray always require a copy, have size limitation and therefore should be probably removed.

Additionally we should think whether it makes sense to keep FloatArrayVector#toDoubleBuffer and DoubleArrayVector#toFloatBuffer which also require a copy. The alternative is to throw an UnsupportedOperationException in such cases.
