    into/from a netCDF variable.

    This function is used to convert a slicing expression into a form that is
    compatible with the nc_get_vars function. Specifically, it needs
    to interpret integers, slices, Ellipses, and 1-d sequences of integers
    and booleans.

    Numpy uses "broadcasting indexing" to handle array-valued indices.
    "Broadcasting indexing" (a.k.a "fancy indexing") treats all multi-valued
    indices together to allow arbitrary points to be extracted. The index
    arrays can be multidimensional, and more than one can be specified in a
    slice, as long as they can be "broadcast" against each other.
    This style of indexing can be very powerful, but it is very hard
    to understand, explain, and implement (and can lead to hard to find bugs).
    Most other python packages and array processing
    languages (such as netcdf4-python, xray, biggus, matlab and fortran)
    use "orthogonal indexing" which only allows for 1-d index arrays and
    treats these arrays of indices independently along each dimension.

    The implementation of "orthogonal indexing" used here requires that
    index arrays be 1-d boolean or integer. If integer arrays are used,
    the index values must be sorted and contain no duplicates.

    In summary, slicing netcdf4-python variable objects with 1-d integer or
    boolean arrays is allowed, but may give a different result than slicing a
    numpy array.

    Numpy also supports slicing an array with a boolean array of the same
    shape. For example x[x>0] returns a 1-d array with all the positive values of x.
    This is also not supported in netcdf4-python, if x.ndim > 1.

    Orthogonal indexing can be used in to select netcdf variable slices
    using the dimension variables. For example, you can use v[lat>60,lon<180]
    to fetch the elements of v obeying conditions on latitude and longitude.
    Allow for this sort of simple variable subsetting is the reason we decided to
    deviate from numpy's slicing rules.

    This function is used both by the __setitem__ and __getitem__ method of
    the Variable class.

    Parameters
    ----------
    elem : tuple of integer, slice, ellipsis or 1-d boolean or integer
    sequences used to slice the netCDF Variable (Variable[elem]).
    shape : tuple containing the current shape of the netCDF variable.
    dimensions : sequence
      The name of the dimensions.
      __setitem__.
    grp  : netCDF Group
      The netCDF group to which the variable being set belongs to.
    datashape : sequence
      The shape of the data that is being stored. Only needed by __setitime__
    put : True|False (default False).  If called from __setitem__, put is True.

    Returns
    -------
    start : ndarray (..., n)
      A starting indices array of dimension n+1. The first n
      dimensions identify different independent data chunks. The last dimension
      can be read as the starting indices.
    count : ndarray (..., n)
      An array of dimension (n+1) storing the number of elements to get.
    stride : ndarray (..., n)
      An array of dimension (n+1) storing the steps between each datum.
    indices : ndarray (..., n)
      An array storing the indices describing the location of the
      data chunk in the target/source array (__getitem__/__setitem__).

    Notes:

    netCDF data is accessed via the function:
       nc_get_vars(grpid, varid, start, count, stride, data)

    Assume that the variable has dimension n, then

    start is a n-tuple that contains the indices at the beginning of data chunk.
    count is a n-tuple that contains the number of elements to be accessed.
    stride is a n-tuple that contains the step length between each element.
