Usage
-----
Jiffy's API is nearly an exact duplicate of the EEP0018 behaviour
except for one small difference. `jiffy:encode/1` now returns an
iolist (specifically, a binary or list of binaries). This is to
allow for the encoding of large numbers.
Jiffy is a simple API. The only thing that might catch you off guard
is that the return type of jiffy:encode/1 is an iolist even though it
returns a binary most of the time.
A quick note on unicode. Jiffy only understands utf-8 in binaries. End
of story. Also, there is a jiffy:encode/2 that takes a list of options
for encoding. Currently the only supported option is `uescape`.
Errors are raised as exceptions.
Eshell V5.8.2 (abort with ^G)
1> jiffy:decode(<<"{\"foo\": \"bar\"}">>).
{ok,{[{<<"foo">>,<<"bar">>}]}}
{[{<<"foo">>,<<"bar">>}]}
2> Doc = {[{foo, [<<"bing">>, 2.3, true]}]}.
{[{foo,[<<"bing">>,2.3,true]}]}
3> jiffy:encode(Doc).
{ok,<<"{\"foo\":[\"bing\",2.2999999999999998224,true]}">>}
<<"{\"foo\":[\"bing\",2.2999999999999998224,true]}">>

Jiffy should be in all ways an improvemnt over EEP0018. It no longer
imposes limits on the nesting depth. It is capable of encoding and
decoding large numbers and t does quite a bit more checking for validity
decoding large numbers and it does quite a bit more checking for validity
