/// Lightweight interface to a JSON object string.
///
/// This makes queries into a string of JSON. This is a read-only device.
/// It is merely functionality built on top of a string_view which is just a
/// pair of `const char*` pointers to the borders of the JSON object. The first
/// character should be '{' and the last character should be '}' but this is
/// not checked on construction.
///
/// This class computes over strings of JSON by parsing it on-the-fly
/// via forward iteration. The const_iterator is fundamental. All other member
/// functions are built from this forward iteration and have worst-case linear
/// complexity *every time you invoke them*. This is not necessarily a bad
/// thing in the appropriate use case. Our parser is pretty efficient; this
/// device conducts zero copies, zero allocations and zero indexing; instead
/// the parser provides string_views to members during the iteration.
///
/// The returned values are character ranges (string_view's) which themselves
/// are type agnostic to their contents. The type of a value is determined at
/// the user's discretion by querying the content of the string_view using a
/// util function like json::type() etc. In other words, a value carries type
/// data from its own original content. This means the user is responsible for
/// removing prefix and suffix characters like '{' or '"' after determining the
/// type if they want a truly pure value string_view. Note the contrast with
/// with json::value which hides '"' around keys and string values: this object
/// preserves all characters of the value for view because it carries no other
/// type information. see: ircd::unquote().
///
/// Recursive traversal cannot be achieved via a single key string value; so
/// any string_view argument for a key will not be recursive. In other words,
/// due to the fact that a JS identifier can have almost any character we have
/// to use a different *type* like a vector of strings; in our common case we
/// use an initializer_list typedef'ed as `path` and those overloads will be
/// recursive.
