It seems odd to me that the octave_value constructor that takes an
Array<octave_idx_type> value would convert it to NDArray internally
instead of storing it as an Array<octave_idx_type>.  The other
conversions also seem odd, but I guess we already have a few other
constructors that have similar options.  What about defining
Array<octave_idx_type> to NDArray conversion with the options and then
using the existing octave_value (const NDArray&) constructor instead?
It seems to me that this approach might cause less trouble later if we
decided we wanted an actual Array<octave_idx_type> value in the
octave_value hierarchy.
