// Package json provides functions for marshaling and unmarshaling JSON in a format that is
// backwards-compatible with Amino JSON encoding. This mostly differs from encoding/json in
// encoding of integers (64-bit integers are encoded as strings, not numbers), and handling
// of interfaces (wrapped in an interface object with type/value keys).
//
// JSON tags (e.g. `json:"name,omitempty"`) are supported in the same way as encoding/json, as is
// custom marshaling overrides via the json.Marshaler and json.Unmarshaler interfaces.
//
// Note that not all JSON emitted by Tendermint is generated by this library; some is generated by
// encoding/json instead, and kept like that for backwards compatibility.
//
// Encoding of numbers uses strings for 64-bit integers (including unspecified ints), to improve
// compatibility with e.g. Javascript (which uses 64-bit floats for numbers, having 53-bit
// precision):
//
// int32(32) // Output: 32
// uint32(32) // Output: 32
// int64(64) // Output: "64"
// uint64(64) // Output: "64"
// int(64) // Output: "64"
// uint(64) // Output: "64"
//
// Encoding of other scalars follows encoding/json:
//
// nil // Output: null
// true // Output: true
// "foo" // Output: "foo"
// "" // Output: ""
//
// Slices and arrays are encoded as encoding/json, including base64-encoding of byte slices
// with additional base64-encoding of byte arrays as well:
//
// []int64(nil) // Output: null
// []int64{} // Output: []
// []int64{1, 2, 3} // Output: ["1", "2", "3"]
// []int32{1, 2, 3} // Output: [1, 2, 3]
// []byte{1, 2, 3} // Output: "AQID"
// [3]int64{1, 2, 3} // Output: ["1", "2", "3"]
// [3]byte{1, 2, 3} // Output: "AQID"
//
// Maps are encoded as encoding/json, but only strings are allowed as map keys (nil maps are not
// emitted as null, to retain Amino backwards-compatibility):
//
// map[string]int64(nil) // Output: {}
// map[string]int64{} // Output: {}
// map[string]int64{"a":1,"b":2} // Output: {"a":"1","b":"2"}
// map[string]int32{"a":1,"b":2} // Output: {"a":1,"b":2}
// map[bool]int{true:1} // Errors
//
// Times are encoded as encoding/json, in RFC3339Nano format, but requiring UTC time zone (with zero
// times emitted as "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z" as with encoding/json):
//
// time.Date(2020, 6, 8, 16, 21, 28, 123, time.FixedZone("UTC+2", 2*60*60))
// // Output: "2020-06-08T14:21:28.000000123Z"
// time.Time{} // Output: "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z"
// (*time.Time)(nil) // Output: null
//
// Structs are encoded as encoding/json, supporting JSON tags and ignoring private fields:
//
// type Struct struct{
// Name string
// Value int32 `json:"value,omitempty"`
// private bool
// }
//
// Struct{Name: "foo", Value: 7, private: true} // Output: {"Name":"foo","value":7}
// Struct{} // Output: {"Name":""}
//
// Registered types are encoded with type wrapper, regardless of whether they are given as interface
// or bare struct, but inside structs they are only emitted with type wrapper for interface fields
// (this follows Amino behavior):
//
// type Vehicle interface {
// Drive() error
// }
//
// type Car struct {
// Wheels int8
// }
//
// func (c *Car) Drive() error { return nil }
//
// RegisterType(&Car{}, "vehicle/car")
//
// Car{Wheels: 4} // Output: {"type":"vehicle/car","value":{"Wheels":4}}
// &Car{Wheels: 4} // Output: {"type":"vehicle/car","value":{"Wheels":4}}
// (*Car)(nil) // Output: null
// Vehicle(Car{Wheels: 4}) // Output: {"type":"vehicle/car","value":{"Wheels":4}}
// Vehicle(nil) // Output: null
//
// type Struct struct {
// Car *Car
// Vehicle Vehicle
// }
//
// Struct{Car: &Car{Wheels: 4}, Vehicle: &Car{Wheels: 4}}
// // Output: {"Car": {"Wheels: 4"}, "Vehicle": {"type":"vehicle/car","value":{"Wheels":4}}}
//
