Closes #2916
This allows using multi-indexing, multi-slicing and fancy-indexing of
Mobject
s, in a similar way to how NumPy arrays can be indexed.For example:
base_mob[0, 0]
returnsMob1
base_mob[1, 0, 0]
returnsVGroup(Mob7)
base_mob[:2, 0]
returnsVGroup(Mob1, Mob3)
base_mob[:2, 1]
returnsVGroup(Mob2, Mob4)
base_mob[1, 0, :, 0]
returnsVGroup(Mob7, Mob9)
base_mob[[2, 0]]
returnsVGroup(Mob6, VGroup(Mob1, Mob2))
base_mob[[True, False, True]]
returnsVGroup(VGroup(Mob1, Mob2), Mob6)
See the added test for more examples of this.
