HyperlinkedIdentityField uses lookup_field kwarg.

According to the [Serializers API Guide][1], `HyperlinkedIdentityField`
takes `lookup_field` as a kwarg like the other related fields and the
generic views. However, this was not actually implemented.

 **Arguments**:
 
 * `view_name` - The view name that should be used as the target of the relationship.  **required**.
-* `slug_field` - The field on the target that should be used for the lookup. Default is `'slug'`.
+* `lookup_field` - The field on the target that should be used for the lookup.  Should correspond to a URL keyword argument on the referenced view. Default is `'pk'`.
-* `pk_url_kwarg` - The named url parameter for the pk field lookup. Default is `pk`.
-* `slug_url_kwarg` - The named url parameter for the slug field lookup. Default is to use the same value as given for `slug_field`.
 * `format` - If using format suffixes, hyperlinked fields will use the same format suffix for the target unless overridden by using the `format` argument.
