* This trait is for multi-dimensional tensors that can logically have one of their
* dimensions "collapsed", e.g. summing out all columns of a matrix to give a column
* vector.
*
* @author dlwh
* @tparam From the tensor being collapsed
* @tparam Axis which axis is being collapsed. Usually a subtype of [[breeze.linalg.Axis.Value]]
* @tparam ColType the type of the "column" (or row or...) being collapsed.
