Ancestors: Collections-nice.752

Nuke obsolete brace constructs used by compiler long long ago.

Since encoder v3 (plus closures) there is a dedicated byte code for constructing those arrays dynamically, so the #braceWith: like messages are not sent for a while and won't be used anymore in foreseeable future.
