Make it clear that the `phoenix_html_helpers` library is needed to use `polymorphic_embed_inputs_for`

Out of curiosity, why is phoenix_html_helpers necessary? Would it be possible to fix this library such that it doesn't depend on phoenix_html_helpers?

It seems that phoenix_html_helpers is only used to generate hidden input fields inside polymorphic_embed_inputs_for/3 and polymorphic_embed_inputs_for/4.

From quickly looking at the code in phoenix_html_helpers it's basically just about generating hidden input field tags.

So I would guess, inlining that piece of code could make it just work without that dependency?
