length property
Setting the length changes the number of elements in the list.
The list must be growable.
If newLength is greater than current length,
new entries are initialized to null,
so newLength must not be greater than the current length
if the element type E is non-nullable.
final maybeNumbers = <int?>[1, null, 3];
maybeNumbers.length = 5;
print(maybeNumbers); // [1, null, 3, null, null]
maybeNumbers.length = 2;
print(maybeNumbers); // [1, null]
final numbers = <int>[1, 2, 3];
numbers.length = 1;
print(numbers); // [1]
numbers.length = 5; // Throws, cannot add `null`s.
