fix(datasets): support multi-dimensional per-frame features in add_features (#4246)

* Fix add_features for multi-dimensional per-frame features

* Use generic names in multidimensional add_features test

* tests(all shapes): enhancing tests to cover all possible features shapes

* chore(format): formatting code
