/** Returns the index of the last occurrence of the needle array in the source
 * array, or -1 if it is not present.
 *
 * A start index can be specified as the third argument that begins the search
 * at that given index. The start index defaults to the end of the array.
 *
 * The complexity of this function is O(source.lenth * needle.length).
 *
 * ```ts
 * import { lastIndexOfNeedle } from "https://deno.land/std@$STD_VERSION/bytes/last_index_of_needle.ts";
 * const source = new Uint8Array([0, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3]);
 * const needle = new Uint8Array([1, 2]);
 * console.log(lastIndexOfNeedle(source, needle)); // 5
 * console.log(lastIndexOfNeedle(source, needle, 4)); // 3
 * ```
