ENH: Make swapaxes always return a view
swapaxes now returns a view of the input array when the axes to swap are both the same, not the input array as it used to do. Fixes #5260

Returns
-------
a_swapped : ndarray
- If `a` is an ndarray, then a view of `a` is returned; otherwise
- a new array is created.
+ For Numpy >= 1.10, if `a` is an ndarray, then a view of `a` is
+ returned; otherwise a new array is created. For earlier Numpy
+ versions a view of `a` is returned only if the order of the
+ axes is changed, otherwise the input array is returned.
