Don't include empty polymoprhic associations

Take this serializer:

class TodoSerializer < ActiveModel::Serializer
  root :todo, :include => true
  has_one :reference, :polymorphic => true
end

A nil reference would generate this JSON:

{
  "todo": { "reference": null },
  "nil_classes": []
}

This commit prevents the `nil_classes` key from being added when
serializing and including nil polymoprhic associations.
