+Support for returning arrays of arbitrary dimensionality in `apply_along_axis`
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Previously, only scalars or 1D arrays could be returned by the function passed
+to `apply_along_axis`. Now, it can return an array of any dimensionality
+(including 0D), and the shape of this array replaces the axis of the array
+being iterated over.
