Markus Armbruster 998da0b158 qobject: Factor JSON writer out of qobject_to_json()
We have two JSON writers written in C: qobject/qjson.c provides
qobject_to_json(), and migration/qjson.c provides a more low level
imperative interface.  They don't share code.  The latter tacitly
limits numbers to int64_t, and strings contents to characters that
don't need escaping.

Factor out qobject_to_json()'s JSON writer as qobject/json-writer.c.
Straightforward, except for numbers: since the writer is to be
independent of QObject, it can't use qnum_to_string().  Open-code it
instead.  This is actually an improvement of sorts, because it
liberates qnum_to_string() from JSON's needs: its JSON-related FIXMEs
move to the JSON writer, where they belong.

The next commit will replace migration/qjson.c.
