Serialize np.float64 as float

Thanks for your feedback!
I noticed that the package was deprecated only after opening the issue, but decided to keep the issue open for our reference as we have a package that depends on this issue.

Actually, I think that my suggestion is more connected to python's duck-typing. The issue with numpy is just one manifestation.
What I mean is that for cases where a class is behaving as a built-in (i.e. being a subclass of a basic type) it might make sense to serialize them in the same way.
In light of this I understand that the title of my issue is misleading.

This is a good point, I'd love to see our serialization supports numpy by default. We won't do it in msrest though as we are deprecating this lib to a new system, recent SDKs don't even install msrest anymore. I'll keep this issue open until we update the new system with it.
