Something like ds.sel(latitude=latitude_grid, longitude=longitude_grid, method='nearest', tolerance=0.1). As this example, I considered the `rasm` data, where the original object stays on the logical coordinates `x` and `y`. If we have conversion DataArrays, such as a table of `x` and `y` values as a function of target coordinates `lat` and `lon`, then the coordinate projection from `(x, y)` to `(lat, lon)` can be done by `.sel(x=x, y=y, method='nearest')`.

See docs for the detail, but the essential change of this PR is that now indexing (`[]`, `.loc[]`, `.sel()`, `.isel()`) considers indexers dimension. By passing `xr.DataArray` as indexers, we can realize many types of advanced indexing, which is done previously by special methods `isel_points`, `sel_points`, and `reindex`. (`isel_points` and `sel_points` are deprecated by this PR.) If indexers have no named dimension (e.g. np.ndarray, integer, slice), then the indexing behaves exactly the same way to the current version.

It's probably best to any convert them into base tuple() objects before indexing. Yes. Actually, some backends seem to check something like `if type(key) is tuple` if key is empty. So, in my previous implementation, I manually converted its instance type in case of an empty tuple. I added `to_tuple()` method to `IndexerTuple` class and called it in all the basic ArrayWrapper.
