Feature #9469: BigDecimal support for yaml serialization

Given the following serialization methods in rails/rails: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/big_decimal/conversions.rb

I feel like these methods would be better supported in the upstream BigDecimal gem.

How do you feel like adding them @mrkn (Kenta Murata)?

Why changing the default format?
And it doesn't seem round-trip.

I think we can remove that custom yaml serialization from Rails and we don't need to put in upstream.

Looking in the history of that file I found it was added 6 years ago because at that date BigDecimal doesn't support to_yaml.

Since we already support it we can remove without any problem.
