[PATCH v4 2/3] Add structured output formatter for JSON.

Using the new structured printer support in sprinter.h, implement
sprinter_json_new, which returns a new JSON structured output
formatter.

The formatter prints output similar to the existing JSON, but with
differences in whitespace (mostly newlines).
