_ArrayToString() documented defaults confusing and arguably wrong

Description
Purely in the hope of helping those who come after me: In the documentation for _ArrayToString(), including the latest looked up online, the defaults for $iStart_Row and $iStart_Col are shown as -1.
I found this confusing as the effective defaults are both 0.
I find I must be a little careful with the base of various arrays in Autoit; depending on context it can be 0 or 1. I therefore did not feel I could use _ArrayToString() without experiment and then a look at the source.
In the source I see that the keyword Default is converted to -1, but then the -1 is converted to 0 without any other use that I can see (maybe it was a hook for some other test never implemented, or deleted)
_ArrayToString() is a useful function and I am grateful to have it and the great documentation is one of the many delightful features of Autoit, so I thought I should make the effort.
