Clarify the required semantics for broadcasting with setitem

Fixes #424.

I have used SHOULD here as suggested in the consortium meeting to not disallow NumPy-like "reverse broadcasting" semantics.

Can we add two simple examples to illustrate what's allowed and what's not?

@asmeurer Would you be willing to update this PR with two examples, one illustrating what is allowed and another illustrating what is disallowed?
