It seems a different story from `+=`.

It feels that `a[0,true]` should return `inplace` object.
Otherwise `+=` would not be possible to modify `a` itself too, even if it were differentiated.

If the object is not frozen, I want to be able to redefine the compound assignment operator (e.g. +=, -=, *=, /=, ..etc ).

With Numo::NArray, using "inplace" instead of "+=" will update the same object so it will be faster.

I want to write "a += 1" instead of "a.inplace + 1".
However, Ruby can not redefine "+=".
