partial_updates clobbers serialized attributes (PATCH)

Ref: http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994-ruby-on-rails/tickets/788

Hi Rail Core,      It seems that partial_updates causes serialized attribute to be skipped when saving (unless *_will_change! is called first).

This causes previously working 2.0 apps to fail in none obvious, silent ways in 2.1.

I've written a minimalist patch (see ticket) to resolve this (and only this) and would greatly appreciate any feedback.

Thanks   - Tom Lea
