YAMLColumn: use YAML.safe_dump if available

One particularly annoying thing with YAMLColumn type restriction
is that it is only checked on load.

Which means if your code insert data with unsupported types, the
insert will work, but now you'll be unable to read the record, which
makes it hard to fix etc.

That's the reason why I implemented `YAML.safe_dump` (https://github.com/ruby/psych/pull/495).

It applies exactly the same restrictions than `safe_load`, which means
if you attempt to store non-permitted fields, it will fail on insertion
and not on further reads, so you won't create an invalid record in your
database.
