      # self.embeddable might look like this:
      #   creator: { attr: :first_creator, serializer: UserSerializer }
      #   contributors: { serializer: UserSerializer}
      # This method will remove the :attr key if the underlying attribute name
      # is different than the name provided in the final json output. All other keys
      # in the hash will be passed to the ActiveModel::Serializer `attribute` method
      # directly (e.g. serializer in the examples will be passed).
      #
      # This setup means if you passed this self.embeddable config and sent no
      # ?embed= query param with your API request, you would get the regular attributes
      # plus creator_id and contributor_ids. If you passed ?embed=creator,contributors
      # then instead of an id and an array of ids, you would get a serialized user
      # (the first_creator) and an array of serialized users (the contributors).
