Description

There's a problem with [] (indexing) operator. Indexing with with one number can be used to read value from the entire table, but it cannot be used to write to multidimensional table. While indexing with 2 or more numbers you can write to any table.
I am not sure, if it is the consequence of C implementation or problem with the wrapper, but this behavior is very unintuitive.

Checked on CPU and OpenCL Backend.
I'll try to fix it on my own
There's an example of the problem

```
ArrayFire.Array A1D = Data.CreateArray(new int[] { 1, 2, 4 });
A1D[1] = Data.CreateArray(new int[] { 100 });
Util.Print(A1D, "A1");

A2D[0, 0] = Data.CreateArray(new int[] { 11 });
A2D[1] = Data.CreateArray(new int[] { 100 });
Util.Print(A2D, "A");

A3D[1,1,1] = Data.CreateArray(new int[] { 100 });
A3D[0, 1] = Data.CreateArray(new int[] { 100 });
A3D[0] = Data.CreateArray(new int[] { 100 });
Util.Print(A3D[1,1], "A3D");
```
Generates the output

```
A1D
[3 1 1 1]
1
100
4

A2D
[3 3 1 1]
100 -1 4
2 2 2
4 0 3

A3D
[2 2 2 1]
1 100
2 -1

2 4
0 100
```
