* Merges any number of arrays / parameters recursively, replacing
* entries with string keys with values from latter arrays.
* If the entry or the next value to be assigned is an array, then it
* automagically treats both arguments as an array.
* Numeric entries are appended, not replaced, but only if they are
* unique
*
* calling: result = array_merge_recursive_distinct(a1, a2, ... aN)
