Description:
------------
I miss a serializer option to disable serializing.

If I only have string to serialize or would like to use an own serializer, a serializing by memcached isn't needed and makes stored data inconsistent.

This needs to throw an excaption if someone wonts to store a non-string on a serializer disabled memcached object.

Reproduce code:
---------------
Example: usign same cache with PHP & Python

$pythonSerializer = new PythonPickleSerializer();
$memcached->setOption(Memcached::OPT_SERIALIZER, Memcached::SERIALIZER_NONE):
$memcached->set('id', $pythonSerializer->serialize($data));

Expected result:
----------------
Reading data with python.

Actual result:
--------------
Can't disable memcached build-in serializer and data will be serialized using one of the available serializer options.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug.

Only arrays and objects are serialized automatically. Everything else is not serialized, so you're free to use your own serializer and store it as a string.

Thanks for you fast answer.

But how does it work to store different php datatypes (like float, int etc.) and on reading detect what datatype it is ?

It stores the data type in the flags portion of the memcache item.
