Make controller available to serialize/deserialize QPs

I don’t know if it is possible, but it would be incredibly useful for the serialize and deserialize functions to have access to the object the query params are mixed into. For example, consider a query param that represents an array index. The deserialize function should be able to sanity check that index to make sure it’s in range.

const myQueryParams = new QueryParams({
  foo: {
    deserialize(value) {
      const length = this.get('bar.length'); // TypeError: this.get is not a function
      // ..
    }
  }
});

export default Ember.Controller.extend(myQueryParams.Mixin, {
  bar: []
});

this might be possible… I’ll whip something up when I wake up

@mwpastore the idea behind the serialize/deserialize is not to do any business logic but only to format how it should look in the URI. The business logic should be done before setting the query parameter in the first place.
