The internal Baseiter type underlies most of the ndarray iterators, and it used `*mut A` for element type A. Update it to use `NonNull<A>` which behaves identically except it's guaranteed to be non-null and is covariant w.r.t the parameter A. Add compile test from the issue. Fixes #1290

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Review note: it's evident that Baseiter is constructed from a NonNull everywhere, which means that its non-null requirement is easily fulfilled.
Complete the transition to using NonNull as the raw pointer type by using it as Baseiter's iterator element type.

*mut Afor element type A. Update it to useNonNull<A>which behaves identically except it's guaranteed to be non-null and is covariant w.r.t the parameter A.Add compile test from the issue.
The second commit continues the "conversion", using NonNull more consistently
in Baseiter's Iterator impl.
Fixes #1290
