save-analysis: Use serde instead of libserialize to dump JSON data
This breaks the save-analysis infrastructure (which also includes `rls-{analysis, data, span}` crates) from depending on rustc_serialize and so we can start moving them to being supported on stable without implementing `Decodable` et al. by hand for data structures defined there.
Notable benefits:
- we drop the awkward raw byte `PathBuf` [serialization](https://gist.github.com/Xanewok/f4fe8564d0dc0c3ab1dbc244279ff895) (until now (de)serialized as `&[u8]`)
- [faster](https://github.com/serde-rs/json-benchmark) (hopefully noticeable for inner crate dependencies for the RLS workloads)
- we can easily explore the binary serialization backend (which we planned to do for save-analysis anyway)
~This should be merged together with an update to RLS (rust-lang/rls#1435), which technically could be included right now because we can use the bundled `rls-analysis` here directly, however I'd prefer to publish this to crates.io first (rust-lang/rls#1434, cc @nrc) and use the published version, instead.~
Includes rust-lang/rls#1436.
@matklad @nikomatsakis This is also important for the potential RLS 1.0 - 2.0 bridge we talked about on Zulip today

This needs to be coordinated with rustc which emits JSON using serde instead of rustc_serialize.
