Add check for unsorted index groups in selections.

Add check for unsorted index groups in selections.

Selections did not work properly if an index group was used that
did not have the atom indices in strictly ascending order.
Added a check for this, and tests that check that this now gives an
error.

Refactored the way index group references are resolved such that the
logic and the related error messages are now only in one place:
selelem.cpp.  This resolves TODOs about improving the error messages.
Also made this piece of code to use exceptions for error reporting.

Related to #651 and #655.
