[SciPy-Dev] `trim1` and 'trimboth' backwards incompatible change

[Abraham Escalante]

Yes. I have made the change to partially sort (and just keep full sorting
for numpy < 1.8.0). If anyone has other observations, please feel free to
mention them.

Here is the PR again: 4910 <https://github.com/scipy/scipy/pull/4910>

Cheers,
Abraham.
