24/// Flatten layer: collapses all spatial dimensions into a single feature vector.
25///
26/// Input shape:  `[N, C, H, W]` (rank 4)
27/// Output shape: `[N, C * H * W]` (rank 2)
28///
29/// Type parameters:
30/// - `D`  — element dtype
31/// - `IT` — input tensor type  (rank 4: `[N, C, H, W]`)
32/// - `OT` — output tensor type (rank 2: `[N, C*H*W]`)
33///
34/// Tensor bounds are on impls, not the struct, so `SymTensor` can have its
35/// own `Layer` impl without a coherence conflict.
