Make YAML serializer prefer block mode over inline mode

Description

Currently:

$ ./manage.py dumpdata invoicing.customer --format=yaml
- fields: {address: bar, company: 1, contact: '', deleted_at: null, email: foo@bar.com,
    name: Foo, tax_id: ''}
  model: invoicing.customer
  pk: 1

After the change:

$ ./manage.py dumpdata invoicing.customer --format=yaml
- fields:
    address: bar
    company: 1
    contact: ''
    deleted_at: null
    email: foo@bar.com
    name: Foo
    tax_id: ''
  model: invoicing.customer
  pk: 1

It makes reading, understanding and editing of fixtures much easier (after all that's why we have YAML).

Yes, it seems to be a dupe. I searched before posting but I somehow missed #11927.

Anyway, I suggest applying this patch as a solution to #11927. If you need a compact format, JSON is there. We should prefer readability when using YAML.
