Related to https://github.com/dfinity/motoko/issues/966

Should we consider that issue closed by this PR, or could we at least use it as an opportunity to define a list of operations we'd like to see on Blob?

I'm not saying we shouldn't just asking for the motivation given that we have syntax for indexing (now for blobs too) and assignment.

We want parity with [T].
