Change save to to_pickle

[hayd]

Should we change the name of save to to_pickle inline with all of the other ways to export things. At the moment the docs are pretty light on what it does.

(I guess similarly with load to from_pickle.)

... not sure I actually have an opinion, but thought I'd throw it out there. Thoughts?

yep...need to do this for 0.12

[hayd]

Should be easy enough, I'll put a pr together.

we could do it for 0.11.1 (and just put a warning on load/save) - see what's I did in io.parsers.ExcelFile....e.g. they will work, then we can actually change the api in 0.12.....

[jreback]

also...needs slight docs update (add in io.rst to the to_xxx)...(and in v0.11.1)
