/**
 * Iterates over elements of `collection`, returning an array of all elements
 * `predicate` returns truthy for. The predicate is invoked with three
 * arguments: (value, index|key, collection).
 *
 * **Note:** Unlike `_.remove`, this method returns a new array.
 *
 * @static
 * @memberOf _
 * @since 0.1.0
 * @category Collection
 * @param {Array|Object} collection The collection to iterate over.
 * @param {Function} [predicate=_.identity] The function invoked per iteration.
 * @returns {Array} Returns the new filtered array.
 * @see _.reject
 * @example
 *
 * var users = [
 *   { 'user': 'barney', 'age': 36, 'active': true },
 *   { 'user': 'fred',   'age': 40, 'active': false }
 * ];
 *
 * _.filter(users, function(o) { return !o.active; });
 * // => objects for ['fred']
 *
 * // The `_.matches` iteratee shorthand.
 * _.filter(users, { 'age': 36, 'active': true });
 * // => objects for ['barney']
 *
 * // The `_.matchesProperty` iteratee shorthand.
 * _.filter(users, ['active', false]);
 * // => objects for ['fred']
 *
 * // The `_.property` iteratee shorthand.
 * _.filter(users, 'active');
 * // => objects for ['barney']
 *
 * // Combining several predicates using `_.overEvery` or `_.overSome`.
 * _.filter(users, _.overSome([{ 'age': 36 }, ['age', 40]]));
 * // => objects for ['fred', 'barney']
