Usage
-----
Jiffy's API is a drop in replacement for the EEP0018 application. The
JSON representation in Erlang is also exactly the same.
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.

Improvements over EEP0018
-------------------------
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
of valid UTF-8 in strings.
