This is the final step that finally closes #14770 and completes the circle on trailing indices and singleton dimensions. After this deprecation goes through, the final state of affairs will be:

  • You are permitted to index into arrays with more indices than dimensions, but all trailing indices must be 1. (This is the status quo before, too.)
  • You are permitted to index into arrays with fewer indices than dimensions, but the length of all the omitted dimensions must be 1. (This is the part that's becoming more restrictive.)

I haven't run the full test-suite yet, so I imagine there may be a few deprecations there that I've missed. And I still need to add NEWS. But This is, by and large, a very benign change. Very few places seem to be relying on this behavior.

This fixes issue #23629 for 0.6. It is done independently from the fix for master (in #23628) due to all the deprecation changes.

I have squashed the commits down more sensibly. Once CI passes this is good to go.

Failures are simply Travis Mac horribleness and #23796.

In #23628, we deprecated omitting indices over dimensions that are not of length 1.  Unfortunately the 0-index case got left behind.  This brings it into consistency.

In short, once this deprecation is removed, `A[]` will _also_ assert that there is only one element in `A`.
