/**
 * Gets all but the last element or last `n` elements of an array. If a
 * callback is provided elements at the end of the array are excluded from
 * the result as long as the callback returns truey. The callback is bound
 * to `thisArg` and invoked with three arguments; (value, index, array).
 *
 * If a property name is provided for `callback` the created "_.pluck" style
 * callback will return the property value of the given element.
 *
 * If an object is provided for `callback` the created "_.where" style callback
 * will return `true` for elements that have the properties of the given object,
 * else `false`.
 *
 * @static
 * @memberOf _
 * @category Arrays
 * @param {Array} array The array to query.
 * @param {Function|Object|number|string} [callback=1] The function called
 *  per element or the number of elements to exclude. If a property name or
 *  object is provided it will be used to create a "_.pluck" or "_.where"
 *  style callback, respectively.
 * @param {*} [thisArg] The `this` binding of `callback`.
 * @returns {Array} Returns a slice of `array`.
 * @example
 *
 * _.initial([1, 2, 3]);
 * // => [1, 2]
 *
 * _.initial([1, 2, 3], 2);
 * // => [1]
 *
 * _.initial([1, 2, 3], function(num) {
 *   return num > 1;
 * });
 * // => [1]

 *   { 'name': 'fred',    'blocked': true,  'employer': 'slate' },
 *   { 'name': 'pebbles', 'blocked': true,  'employer': 'na' }
 * ];
 *
 * // using "_.pluck" callback shorthand
 * _.initial(characters, 'blocked');
 * // => [{ 'name': 'barney',  'blocked': false, 'employer': 'slate' }]
 *
 * // using "_.where" callback shorthand
 * _.pluck(_.initial(characters, { 'employer': 'na' }), 'name');
 * // => ['barney', 'fred']
