Support for indexing serialized arrays

If the value is an array, recursively "implode" all values with a linebreak character. Many plugins store data (e. g. repeatable text boxes) as serialized arrays in the post_meta table. This changes makes it easier to index them properly without indexing control characters or array index names.
