Jakob Hellermann 4b191d968d remove blanket Serialize + Deserialize requirement for Reflect on generic types (#5197)
# Objective

Some generic types like `Option<T>`, `Vec<T>` and `HashMap<K, V>` implement `Reflect` when where their generic types `T`/`K`/`V` implement `Serialize + for<'de> Deserialize<'de>`.
This is so that in their `GetTypeRegistration` impl they can insert the `ReflectSerialize` and `ReflectDeserialize` type data structs.

This has the annoying side effect that if your struct contains a `Option<NonSerdeStruct>` you won't be able to derive reflect (https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/4054).

## Solution

- remove the `Serialize + Deserialize` bounds on wrapper types
  - this means that `ReflectSerialize` and `ReflectDeserialize` will no longer be inserted even for `.register::<Option<DoesImplSerde>>()`
- add `register_type_data<T, D>` shorthand for `registry.get_mut(T).insert(D::from_type<T>())`
- require users to register their specific generic types **and the serde types** separately like
```rust
        .register_type::<Option<String>>()
        .register_type_data::<Option<String>, ReflectSerialize>()
        .register_type_data::<Option<String>, ReflectDeserialize>()

```
I believe this is the best we can do for extensibility and convenience without specialization.


## Changelog

- `.register_type` for generic types like `Option<T>`, `Vec<T>`, `HashMap<K, V>` will no longer insert `ReflectSerialize` and `ReflectDeserialize` type data. Instead you need to register it separately for concrete generic types like so:
```rust
        .register_type::<Option<String>>()
        .register_type_data::<Option<String>, ReflectSerialize>()
        .register_type_data::<Option<String>, ReflectDeserialize>()
```

TODO: more docs and tweaks to the scene example to demonstrate registering generic types.
