Changed pos to unsigned int to prevent warning from happening.

rebar.config: fix Windows support (CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS)

This sounds rather insane to me but I've managed to show that `(char)
-1` is converted to 255 on some platforms. This was reproduced on
ppc64el via Qemu on OS X. A simple program that does `fprintf(stderr,
"%d\r\n", (char) -1);` prints 255 to the console. Rather than rely on
the signedness of a char I've just updated things to use an unsigned
char (which hopefully is never signed) and replaced -1 with 255 for the
sentinel value when converting hex values.

Thanks to Balint Reczey (@rbalint) for the report.

Fixes #74

This fixes a leak when encoding a bare bignum. Technically it would be
possible to hit this memory leak randomly with bignums in objects but
the chances are highly unlikely.

Thanks to @miriampena for the issue.

Fixes #69

The `val` variable is a register value that we need to be able to return
at any time from `decode_iter`. If it happened that a yield was
triggered while processing trailing whitespace the lack of persistance
caused decode to return a term intialized from a random integer value.
Obviously the Erlang VM did not enjoy this.

Thanks to @michalpalka for the report.

Fixes #66

This updates encoder errors to report the actual Erlang value that
caused the error. This should make it easier to debug errors when
generating JSON.

I must've managed to miss the PR update from Stanislav the other day
when merging this.

This implements the `use_nil` option as discussed on issue #64. Passing
the atom `use_nil` as an option to both encode and decode will replace
the atom `null` with `nil` when decoding and encode `nil` as `null` when
encoding values.

Fixes #64
Fixes #68

Rather than worry about truncation casting from a possibly 64bit value
down to a possibly 32bit size_t we just limit the total bytes per
invocation to 4G using an unsigned integer.

Thanks to @seriyps for the report.

Fixes #61

This is motivated by issue #60 to see if we can get away with `-O3`
while still handling the cast of a `Decoder**` to `void**`.

Fixes #60

Timeouts apparently don't actually work unless you use a test generator.
Which makes sense in hindsight.

Finally got off my butt and started using EUnit.

Refactoring the test suite I found that the old etap was only as strict
as the `==` operator where as EUnit uses the `=:=` operator.

This patch adds initial support for decoding/encoding to/from the new
maps data type.

I'd like to thank Jihyun Yu (yjh0502) for the initial versions of this
work.

This adds a configurable limit on the number of bytes produced by
the encoder before yielding back to the Erlang VM. This is to avoid the
infamous scheduler collapse issues.

The `jiffy:encode/2` now takes an option `{bytes_per_iter,
pos_integer()}` that controls the yield frequency. The default value is
2048.

This is ground work to allow Jiffy to yield back to the scheduler.
Creating an encoder resource will allow for the necessary state to be
carried across NIF function invocations.

If the environment variable USE_GDB exists this plugin will pause
before the EUNIT tests so that you can attach a debugger to the VM.

Properly decode them and accept to encode them.

A single quote input was causing segfaults due to sneaking past the
string termination logic. This patch corrects that lapse in conditional
by only parsing strings where a closing quote was found. All other
strings are rejected as invalid.

Big thanks to Jean-Charles Campagne (@jccampagne) for reporting the
issue.

Because reasons.

I removed some columns to try and minimize the amount of test data I'm
requiring and forgot to update the test code.

I pulled in a lot of tests from the double-conversion test suite to make
sure we don't accidentally break behavior in the future.

My truth table was a bit busted for extreme value doubles.
