    BoundaryOperator{T,R,N} <: LazyTensor{T,0,1}

Implements the boundary operator `op` for 1D as a `LazyTensor`

`op` is the restriction of a grid function to the boundary using some closure `Stencil{T,N}`.
The boundary to restrict to is determined by `R`.
`op'` is the prolongation of a zero dimensional array to the whole grid using the same closure stencil.

# Review: 
# It should probably be removed. It's kind of weird to have a convenice constructor
# for a general type if it isnt used by any of the current specializations. And in most cases the 1D constructor
# can be inflated.
