-1. Since high-d data is usually a mistake and NumPy offers easy
reshaping for the advanced use cases, I think we should leave the code
as is. It fits the existing convention that an array has shape
(n_samples, n_features) and raises a very clear exception. Passing
higher-d data on would raise an exception deep down in the k-NN code,
making debugging of easy mistakes harder.
