Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 8c97e38731 tests: fix version-specific portability issue in Perl JSON
The test guarded by PERLJSON added in 75459410ed ("json_writer: new
routines to create JSON data", 2018-07-13) assumed that a JSON boolean
value like "true" or "false" would be represented as "1" or "0" in
Perl.

This behavior can't be relied upon, e.g. with JSON.pm 2.50 and
JSON::PP.  A JSON::PP::Boolean object will be represented as "true"
or "false". To work around this let's check if we have any refs left
after we check for hashes and arrays, assume those are JSON objects,
and coerce them to a known boolean value.

The behavior of this test still looks odd to me. Why implement our own
ad-hoc encoder just for some one-off test, as opposed to say Perl's
own Data::Dumper with Sortkeys et al? But with this change it works,
so let's leave it be.

Jeff Hostetler 75459410ed json_writer: new routines to create JSON data
Add "struct json_writer" and a series of jw_ routines to compose JSON
data into a string buffer.  The resulting string may then be printed by
commands wanting to support a JSON-like output format.

The json_writer is limited to correctly formatting structured data for
output.  It does not attempt to build an object model of the JSON data.

We say "JSON-like" because we do not enforce the Unicode (usually UTF-8)
requirement on string fields.  Internally, Git does not necessarily have
Unicode/UTF-8 data for most fields, so it is currently unclear the best
way to enforce that requirement.  For example, on Linux pathnames can
contain arbitrary 8-bit character data, so a command like "status" would
not know how to encode the reported pathnames.  We may want to revisit
this (or double encode such strings) in the future.
