Description

We can't restrict the type accepted to Tuple{Vararg{Type{<:Axis}}} because typeof((Axis{:time}, Axis{:label})) == Tuple{UnionAll, UnionAll} but we might be able to assume they are axis types when they're not Base.Dims.

This would be especially useful after https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/23500

Research direction

Start by locating the existing squeeze implementation and its tests in AxisArrays.jl, then review how axis types and Base.Dims are currently dispatched. Implement support for squeezing multiple axes while respecting the type-handling constraint described in the issue, and confirm that the existing behavior remains intact alongside the multi-axis case.
