      The JSON RFC that arrays are valid top-level JSON objects:

         A JSON text is a sequence of tokens.  The set of tokens includes six
   structural characters, strings, numbers, and three literal names.

   A JSON text is a serialized object or array.

      JSON-text = object / array

      This ticket is for adding the ability to test for and parse arrays in strings as well as the ability to print them. Example usage:

      StringData json("[ 123, \"abc\", ... ]");
if (isArray(json)) {
    BSONArray arr = fromjson(json);
    std::cout << printjson(arr) << std::endl;
}
