// Minimal-state JSON writer. Consumes almost no memory
// apart from the string being built-up, which could easily be replaced
// with a file stream (although I've chosen not to do that just yet).
//
// Writes nicely 2-space indented output with correct comma-placement
// in arrays and dictionaries.
//
// Does not deal with encodings in any way.
//
// Zero dependencies apart from stdlib (if you remove the vhjson usage.)
