PR #3095 fixed a corner case issue where a single row item access of a multi-dimensional Column returned a Column object instead of the expected ndarray.
However, by adding a pure-Python override of the
ndarray.__getitem__method a significant performance penalty (factor of 10) was incurred for single-element item access (#3232). In the discussion of 3232 it was agreed to back out #3095, but in all the activity related to the 1.0 release this didn't get done.This PR does the back out.
