a few performance improvements for toArray

First of all the typo I have made when migrating from manifests to tags.
`repr.getClass` in `WrappedArray` should read `array.getClass`.

Secondly manifests for Any, Object/AnyRef, AnyVal, Null and Nothing
now have their `newArray` methods overridden to avoid reflective overhead
of array instantiation.
