Lift JSON library from clang-tools-extra/clangd to llvm/Support.
Summary: This consists of four main parts: - an type json::Expr representing JSON values of dynamic kind, which can be composed, inspected, and modified - a JSON parser from string -> json::Expr - a JSON printer from json::Expr -> string, with optional pretty-printing - a convention for mapping json::Expr <=> native types (fromJSON/toJSON) Mapping functions are provided for primitives (e.g. int, vector) and the ObjectMapper helper helps implement fromJSON for struct/object types. Based on clangd's usage, a couple of places I'd appreciate review attention: - fromJSON returns only bool. A richer error-signaling mechanism may be useful to provide useful messages, or let recursive fromJSONs (containers/structs) do careful error recovery. - should json::obj be always explicitly written (like json::ary) - there's no streaming parse API. I suspect there are some simple wins like a callback API where the document is a long array, and each element is small. But this can probably be bolted on easily when we see the need.
