Explicitly allow openArray in Tensor [], []=, fix the CI (mratsim#666)

* explicitly allow `openArray` in `[]`, `[]=` for tensors

This was simply an oversight obviously

* fix CI by compiling tests with `-d:ssl`

* need a space, duh

* use AWS mirror from PyTorch for MNIST download

* fix regression caused by PR mratsim#659

By not resetting the offset here, operating on a Tensor view without
cloning could cause undefined behavior, because we would be accessing
elements outside the tensor buffer.

* add test case for regression of mratsim#659
