Ability to convert Tensor to String representation

Per our discussion on Gitter, here is a possible implementation for converting Tensors to a String representation. It is still missing some important features, like collapsing long arrays using ellipses, but this can serve as a stepping stone. The functionality is meant to ease troubleshooting/debugging so performance should not be an issue.

La issue contiene un’implementazione proposta di Tensors che usa Session, classi dei tipi tensor e le API Shape e DataBuffer, ma non indica alcun file del repository né alcun test. Inizia individuando i punti di ingresso esistenti per i tensor e la conversione in stringa, quindi esamina la proposta e il comportamento mancante di raggruppamento degli array lunghi. Il lavoro è completato quando i tipi tensor supportati hanno una rappresentazione in stringa concordata e testata.
