Update for serde 0.9.0

[indiv0]

Would it be possible to bump the serde version in the Cargo.toml to support serde 0.9.0?

The problem is that that would be a breaking change, we’d need to change the url version number to 2.0.0. Since (for example) Hyper uses url::Url is some of its public APIs, updating it to url 2.0.0 would also be a breaking change and Hyper’s own version number would need to be changed accordingly. Since url is used a lot, this cascading effect is pretty disruptive overall. Maybe you were involved when the libc crate went from 0.1 to 0.2?

For this reason, the plan is to replace the serde support in url itself by the url_serde crate: https://docs.rs/url_serde/ This one already uses 0.9.

Ah. That makes sense. Thank you for the link :)
