Add the ability to work in no-std (optionally with alloc) (#132)

By default, the `std` feature is enabled, but with disable-default-features, it can now be either no-std/no-alloc.

This did involve a **breaking change** with the serialization traits, to allow no-alloc serialization.

Serialize/Deserialize traits were sealed, and most functions were hidden

Per [updated guidance][1], it is recommended to commit the Cargo.lock, even for libraries, so this removes it from the gitignore, and adds it.

Fixes #131
