C layout of VectorArray interface methods is confusing a lot of users

We should again consider switching to 'column vectors'. We might perform automatic conversion to Fortran order when instantiating NumpyVectorArrays and/or warn about this.

See nias-project/nias#10

As this keeps coming up, I'd be for making the change (with automatic conversions and warnings). If we decide to do this, I would wait for the NiAS transition, assuming this happens in the foreseeable future. What do the other @pymor/main devs thing?
