Change serde_path to crate

Also changed the generated code to have at least one thing refer to the
path directly, rather than via `use` -- This shows that the impl *can*
work without `use`, but doesn't actually do all the work to remove the
`use` lines unless we decide we need this feature to work on the 2015
edition
