Description
Does it make sense to allow users to specify C or Fortran ordering for LocalArrays? It would be nice when using `DistArray` to wrap Fortran-based MPI code.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the LocalArray and DistArray APIs and how they interact with Fortran-based MPI code. Determine whether users can specify C or Fortran ordering, identify the design and compatibility implications, and define what behavior and tests would demonstrate a complete solution.
