Let the caller decide whether output must be strict JSON (and
raise an error on an attempt to output an encoding error or
non-finite number), vs. the status quo of relaxed (encoding
errors are rewritten to use substitute U+fffd characters,
and non-finite numbers are output).

Adjust the testsuite to cover this: check-qobject-json checks
relaxed mode (since qobject_to_json() is unchanged in behavior),
test-qmp-output-visitor checks that QObject doesn't care about
JSON restrictions, and test-json-output-visitor is now in
strict mode and flags the errors.

Uggh, posted the wrong version. checkpatch complained the { was on the
wrong line, so I added it in the right one and then pushed before
re-saving after deleting the duplicate one.

Actually, if this patch is worthwhile, I'm thinking that in v5, I'll
minimize some of the churn and keep the ToJsonIterState struct that I
removed in 26/28, even if it only has a single 'Visitor *v' member at
that time, rather than completely removing it there to reinstate it here.

I suspect you won't need it if you replace qdict_iter() by
qdict_first(), qdict_next(), and qlist_iter() by QLIST_FOREACH_ENTRY.

We need to decide whether QMP should keep extending JSON for numbers
(see my review of PATCH 17), and how to treat invalid UTF-8.  If the
decision leads to two JSON dialects in QEMU, one strict and one QMP, we
need this patch.

Switch to strict not documented in the commit message.  Is it a no-op?

Just noticed the pre-patch difference NULL here and &error_abort
elsewhere.  I'd use &error_abort here, too [PATCH 26].

I think this one should be dropped in PATCH 17, where the invalid JSON
becomes a documented interface option.
