jqgo: variations on experimental Go clones of jq

The main jqgo program is a path-aware, partial-parsing JSON implementation.

The "control" program uses Go's builtin (non-path-aware) JSON parsing library with a path implementation on top.

And the ultimate control is jq itself.

Usage:

$ go build
$ cat testdata/everything.json
{"a": "1", "x": [2,3, [99, {"aa": 12}]], "d": {"a": 2, "b": {"c": 1}, "x": {}}, "c": true, "b": 2}
$ cat testdata/everything.json| ./jqgo 'x.0'
2

Limitations

TONS!

1. Can't output a JSON object or array currently, end of path must be a scalar
2. Can't filter/map/etc
3. Can't fetch multiple items
