Description

For some computation graphs, the shape is dependent on value of the computation graph's parameters. One example of such a computation graph is:
```python
n = pt.make_size_param("n")
a = pt.make_placeholder("a", shape=(10,n), dtype="float64")
out = pt.squeeze(a)
```

Notice how the shape of `out` depends on the value of "n" passed to the program. However, we do not account for such shape specialization based on the values of the parameters.

Research direction

Start with the parametric-shape example in the issue and inspect how Pytato represents size parameters and infers shapes. The issue names no files or tests; done would require an agreed definition of shape specialization based on parameter values, followed by implementation and coverage for this example.
