  • Don't enable serde/std by default.
  • Add a serde-serialize-no-std feature to enable serde without its default features.

At first I wantetd to rename serde-serialize to just serde, just like I did with the rand dependency. However this doesn't work because of the way serde serives operate: serde-rs/serde#953

Don't enable `serde/std` by default.
Add a `serde-serialize-no-std` feature to enable serde without its default features.

Just a quick interjection: it would perhaps make sense to document the difference between the two different serde-* features? While the name gives some of the intention away, the exact semantics are not entirely clear to me.

EDIT: That is to say, it's not clear to me what effect on nalgebra enabling serde without default features has
