Merge form plugin into core

Description

The core serialize method is extremely limited, while the form plugin performs quite well. As lots of interested users still don't know about the form plugin, it would be a good idea to merge it to the core. For those already using the form plugin, the overall code size would be reduced.

Biggest problem: The two serialize methods are not compatible. The current works on a number of elements, the other starts with a form and serializes all form elements inside of it.

Since we've had a while to think about this, I think the Form plugin will remain a plugin.
