⚡️ Speed up function _serialize_series by 234% in PR #6044 (refactor-serialization)

Certainly! Here is a more optimized version of the program.



Changes made.
1. Replaced the `apply` method with dictionary comprehension. This avoids creating an intermediate Series, which can be an expensive operation.
2. Moved `_truncate_value` outside of the main function to keep the main function concise and focused.
