flatten(input)

Converts input of array of array type into flat array type by inserting 
elements of all element arrays into single array. Example:
input: [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5], [-1, -2, 0]]
output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, -1, -2, 0]

Converts input of array of map type into flat map type by inserting key-value 
pairs of all element maps into single map. Example:
input: [(1 -> "one", 2 -> "two"), (0 -> "zero"), (4 -> "four")]
output: (1 -> "one", 2 -> "two", 0 -> "zero", 4 -> "four")
