The existing read functionality feeds the complete JSON to jshn as a
cmdline argument, leading to `-ash: jshn: Argument list too long`
errors for JSONs bigger than ca. 100KB.
This commit adds the ability to read the JSON directly from a file if
wanted, removing this shell-imposed size limit.
Tested on x86-64 and ar71xx. An mmap()-based solution was also evaluated,
but found to make no performance difference on either platform.

Instead of abort parsing, properly deal with "null" values by implementing
support for reading and formatting such values.

This allows for reading in and writing out bigger JSON Numbers.
Following test script (that fails to print correct values _without_ this
commit) verifies the functionality (tested on x86-64 as well as on ar71xx):

Consistently handle allocation failures. Some functions are changed to
return bool or int instead of void to allow returning an error.
Also fix a buffer size miscalculation in lua/uloop and use _exit() instead
of exit() on errors after forking.

Though currently jshn is more a one-shot data transformation tool and
won't leak much memory in its lifetime, people may use it as example
code, so do it right.
