The original sentence "creating an argument array the size of the output times the number of vectors" was confusing. Reworded to be clearer about the memory advantage of using broadcasting with ix_(). Closes numpy#31127

PR summary
Clarifies a confusing sentence in the "The ix_() function" section of the
NumPy quickstart tutorial.
The original wording — "creating an argument array the size of the output
times the number of vectors" — was reported as unclear by a user learning
from the quickstart. This rewording follows the suggestion from @ngoldbaum
in the issue discussion.
Closes #31127
