Description

With the changes in https://github.com/ruby/yaml/pull/41, this has broken our ability to store non-permitted classes. It would be great to be able to pass-through options to ::safe_load or at least choose to use ::unsafe_load. Thanks!

Research direction

Start by reviewing the changes in ruby/yaml pull request 41 and the current use of YAML.safe_load. Determine how options could be passed through or how unsafe_load could be selected. Done means the existing ability to load non-permitted classes is restored through a defined API, with the behavior verified.
