  This expects examples to come through as float tensors, and simply
  wraps them as TensorServingInputReceivers.

  Arguably, this should live in tf.estimator.export. Testing here first.

  Args:
    shape: list representing target size of a single example.
    dtype: the expected datatype for the input example
    batch_size: number of input tensors that will be passed for prediction

  Returns:
    A function that itself returns a TensorServingInputReceiver.
