[PATCH] [YAML] Recover gracefully when deserializing invalid YAML input.

[Alp Toker]

Hi Chandler,

Writing off-list because the discussions are getting a bit heated over
what's ultimately not a big deal..

The unit test is twice the size of the implementation in this patch.

There's an entire standalone C compiler out there written in fewer lines
of code than just the /YAML unit tests/.

The code either dumps valid YAML or it doesn't. If for whatever reason
it doesn't dump valid YAML, the problem could be detected rapidly by lit
tests or external consumers.

This is a good example of why there was a backlash against more
systematic testing like mock tests (which is actually not a bad idea in
principle, I honestly kind of want it if it can be added the right way).

Alp.
