Use upstream ruamel.yaml instead of ruamel_yaml

[mbargull]

Description

I'm currently looking at what packages on conda-forge have a dependency on the non-maintained ruamel_yaml package.

It'd be good if we could have this package depend on ruamel.yaml instead of ruamel_yaml, too.

NB: The latest conda-forge::ruamel_yaml is still at version 0.15.80 -- upstream released that version 5 years ago.

Conda-forge will stop (re-)building (the severly outdated) ruamel_yaml package; tracking issue: https://github.com/conda-forge/ruamel_yaml-feedstock/issues/107

xref: https://github.com/conda-forge/faunus-feedstock/issues/42

This should also add compatibility for ruamel.yaml=0.18. ruamel.yaml=0.18 removed the top-level load, dump, etc. functions. For details see https://pypi.org/project/ruamel.yaml/0.18.4/ .
