Description

I think it would help if the README or some other piece of top-level documentation provided some guidance regarding what version or versions of the YAML spec this library aims to support, and how fully it supports that spec.

Start with the README and other top-level documentation to see where project support details are currently described. Document the YAML specification version or versions targeted by libyaml and explain the degree of compliance; the work is done when users can find that guidance in the top-level documentation.
