Adds functionality to handle form element serialization.
serialize()andserializeArray()mimic their jQuery counterparts in terms of output. As the{ name, value }format is less useful for most Python applications, this PR introduces formats compatible with, e.g., the Requests library:serializePairs()=>[('order', 'spam'), ('order', 'eggs'), ('order2', 'ham')]serializeDict()=>OrderedDict([('order', ['spam', 'eggs']), ('order2', 'ham')])I have added documentation and passing tests (whose results agree with jQuery 3.3.1).
