Consider evaluating association in serializer context

For discussion:

Consider evaluating association in serializer context

That way, associations are really just anything that
can be conditionally included.  They no longer
have to actually be methods on the object or serializer.

e.g.

```diff
has_many :comments do
- last(1)
+ Comment.active.for_serialization(object).last(1)
end
```

Features:
- [#1336](https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/pull/1336) Added support for Grape >= 0.13, < 1.0
- [#1378](https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/pull/1378) Change association blocks
to be evaluated in *serializer* scope, rather than *association* scope. (@bf4)
* Syntax changes from e.g.
`has_many :titles do customers.pluck(:title) end` (in #1356) to
`has_many :titles do object.customers.pluck(:title) end`
- [#1356](https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/pull/1356) Add inline syntax for
attributes and associations (@bf4 @beauby @noahsilas)
* Allows defining attributes so that they don't conflict with existing methods. e.g. `attribute
:title do 'Mr. Topum Hat' end`
* Allows defining associations so that they don't conflict with existing methods. e.g. `has_many
:titles do customers.pluck(:title) end`
* Allows dynamic associations, as compared to compare to using
[`virtual_value`](https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/pull/1356#discussion_r47146466).
e.g. `has_many :reviews, virtual_value: [{ id: 1 }, { id: 2 }]`
* Removes dynamically defined methods on the serializer
