/// A primitive of the ircd::json system representing a value at runtime.
///
/// This holds state for values apropos a JSON object or array. Value's
/// data can either be in the form of a JSON string or it can be some native
/// machine state. The serial flag indicates the former.
///
/// Value can can hold any of the JSON types in either of these states.
/// This is accomplished with runtime switching and branching but this is
/// still lightweight and without a vtable pointer. The structure is just
/// the size of two pointers like a string_view; we commandeer bits of the
/// second word to hold type, flags, and length information. Thus we can hold
/// large vectors of values at 16 byte alignment and not 24 byte.
///
/// Value is capable of allocation and ownership of its internal data and copy
/// semantics. This is primarily to support recursion and various developer
/// conveniences like nested initializer_list's etc. It is better to
/// std::move() a value than copy it, but the full copy semantic is supported;
/// however, if serial=false then a copy will stringify the data into JSON and
/// the destination will be serial=true,alloc=true; thus copying of complex
/// native values never occurs.
///
/// Take careful note of a quirk with `operator string_view()`: when the
/// value is a STRING type string_view()'ing the value will never show
/// the string with surrounding quotes in view. This is because the value
/// accepts both quoted and unquoted strings as input from the developer, then
/// always serializes correctly; unquoted strings are more natural to work
/// with. This does not apply to other types like OBJECT and array as
/// string_view()'ing those when in a serial state will show surrounding '{'
/// etc.
