Explicit typecast in pcasvd prevents FixedSizeArray usage #245

Description

@bertini97

Hi, when using FixedSizeArrays and trying to do PCA with the SVD method

using FixedSizeArrays, MultivariateStats
M = FixedSizeArray(randn(10, 100))
fit(PCA, M, method=:svd)

one is met with

TypeError: in typeassert, expected Vector{Float64}, got a value of type FixedSizeArray{Float64, 1, Memory{Float64}}

Stacktrace:
 [1] pcasvd(Z::FixedSizeArray{…}, mean::FixedSizeArray{…}, n::Int64; maxoutdim::Int64, pratio::Float64)
   @ MultivariateStats ~/.julia/packages/MultivariateStats/sSKHh/src/pca.jl:242

because of the cast in

v = Svd.S::Vector{T}

Overwriting the function removing the explicit typecast makes it work (it results in an unrelated error in StatsBase). Is there something that can be done about this? Thank you in advance.
