    Args:
        array: Array-like data (anything #ak.to_layout recognizes).
        highlevel (bool): If True, return an #ak.Array; otherwise, return
            a low-level #ak.contents.Content subclass.
        behavior (None or dict): Custom #ak.behavior for the output array, if
            high-level.

    Returns an array with all level of nesting removed by erasing the
    boundaries between consecutive lists.

    This is the equivalent of NumPy's `np.ravel` for Awkward Arrays.

    Consider the following:

        >>> array = ak.Array([[[1.1, 2.2, 3.3],
        ...                    [],
        ...                    [4.4, 5.5],
        ...                    [6.6]],
        ...                   [],
        ...                   [[7.7],
        ...                    [8.8, 9.9]
        ...                   ]])

    Ravelling the array produces a flat array

        >>> ak.ravel(array).show()
        [1.1,
         2.2,
         3.3,
         4.4,
         5.5,
         6.6,
         7.7,
         8.8,
         9.9]

    Missing values are not eliminated by flattening. See #ak.flatten with
    `axis=None` for an equivalent function that eliminates the option type.
