Add .toArray() method

Description

Reading through the documentation today I found an example (

$("div").get(); /// returns array of DOM nodes

Also I notice .makeArray() only works in the following way

$.makeArray($("div"));

And not like so:

$("div").makeArray();

Given that the functionality exists (but just not documented properly), could jQuery include a .toArray/.makeArray method (either adapting the current .makeArray or as an alias for .get()).

there is really no reason to add another array creator method to the core
