   * Create the symmetric difference of two (multi)sets.
   * Multi-dimension arrays will be converted to single-dimension arrays before the operation.
   *
   * Syntax:
   *
   *    math.setSymDifference(set1, set2)
   *
   * Examples:
   *
   *    math.setSymDifference([1, 2, 3, 4], [3, 4, 5, 6])            // returns [1, 2, 5, 6]
   *    math.setSymDifference([[1, 2], [3, 4]], [[3, 4], [5, 6]])    // returns [1, 2, 5, 6]
   *
   * See also:
   *
   *    setUnion, setIntersect, setDifference
   *
   * @param {Array | Matrix}    a1  A (multi)set
   * @param {Array | Matrix}    a2  A (multi)set
   * @return {Array | Matrix}    The symmetric difference of two (multi)sets
