This function takes an n-dimensional input array of the form [max_sequence_length, batch_size, other_feature_dims]
and returns an array of the same shape.

Parameter `sequence_length` is used to handle variable-length sequences.
`sequence_length` should be an input array of positive ints of dimension [batch_size].
To use this parameter, set `use_sequence_length` to `True`,
otherwise each example in the batch is assumed to have the max sequence length.

Example::

   x = [[[  1.,   2.,   3.],
         [  4.,   5.,   6.]],

        [[  7.,   8.,   9.],
         [ 10.,  11.,  12.]],

        [[ 13.,  14.,   15.],
         [ 16.,  17.,   18.]]]

   // Batch 1
   B1 = [[  1.,   2.,   3.],
         [  7.,   8.,   9.],
         [ 13.,  14.,  15.]]

   // Batch 2
   B2 = [[  4.,   5.,   6.],
         [ 10.,  11.,  12.],
         [ 16.,  17.,  18.]]

   // returns reverse sequence when sequence_length parameter is not used
   SequenceReverse(x) = [[[ 13.,  14.,   15.],
