Proposal for new astropy.array subpackage
See original GitHub issueThe tools in astropy.nddata.utils really have no relation to NDData and thus they are a bit hard to find. For example, it’s not obvious that Cutout2D or block_reduce would fall under the NDData subpackage. I propose that we move these tools to a new astropy subpackage, perhaps called astropy.array (better name suggestions are welcome!). Before I go ahead with this change, I’d like to hear thoughts from others.
There are other tools, e.g. a radial profile tool (#6078) that currently have no obvious place to go. An astropy.array package would be a good place (better than others).
Thoughts?

I’d put in
