This is useful to set application-wide default behavior - e.g. in
previous versions of AMS the default behavior was to serialize the
full object graph by default - equivalent to the '**' include tree.
Currently just the global setting, but I think this could also work
on a per-serializer basis, with more attention.
This will prevent objects PORO objects that don't have updated_at defined, from throwing an error.
Not as big a deal now that PORO objects can inherit ActiveModelSerializers::Model, but still necessary if it's not inherited for whatever reason.
Add the Adapter type to the cache key.
This prevents incorrect results when the same object is serialized with different adapters.

Cherry-pick of
040a97b9e9
which was a squash of
f89ed71058
from pr 1346
- The removed classes and modules were added back with deprecation
warning and deprecation test were added for them.
- One test was renamed because it contained `__`.
- Some tests were refactored.
- The ActiveModelSerializers::Deserialization module is now called
Adapter instead of ActiveModelSerializers::Adapter.
- The changelog was added for #1535
Idea per remear (Ben Mills) in the slack:

remear:
just so i understand, the adapter in `render json: resource, status: 422, adapter: 'json_api/error',
serializer: ActiveModel::Serializer::ErrorSerializer` is a different one than, say what i’ve
specified in a base serializer with `ActiveModel::Serializer.config.adapter = :json_api`. correct?
and a followup question of, why not same adapter but different serializer?
me:
With the way the code is written now, it might be possible to not require a special jsonapi adapter.
However, the behavior is pretty different from the jsonapi adapter.
this first draft of the PR had it automatically set the adapter if there were errors. since that
requires more discussion, I took a step back and made it explicit for this PR
If I were to re-use the json api adapter and remove the error one, it think the serializable hash
method would look like
```
def serializable_hash(options = nil)
return { errors: JsonApi::Error.collection_errors } if serializer.is_a?(ErrorsSerializer)
return { errors: JsonApi::Error.resource_errors(serializer) } if serializer.is_a?(ErrorSerializer)
options ||= {}
```
I suppose it could be something more duckish like
```
def serializable_hash(options = nil)
if serializer.errors? # object.errors.any? || object.any? {|o| o.errors.any? }
JsonApi::Error.new(serializer).serializable_hash
else
# etc
```
