It was discovered fairly recently that JSON parsing libraries use
common pattern to name their exported symbols (they all use
json_ prefix). So eventually it happens that two symbols from two
different libraries have the same name. This will lead to cryptic
crashes (see [1] and [2]). Linking with -Bsymbolic-functions
prevents this.

Recent versions of gcc have introduced compiler warnings for string
operations that could be truncated. This caused problems with -Werror.
src/error.c used strncpy to write "..." to a string, but skipped writing
the NUL terminator. Switch this to use memcpy. src/load.c produced
warnings from snprintf writing error strings that could be truncated.
Added code to autotools build to detect `-Wno-format-truncation', add it
to AM_CFLAGS if supported.
This is because it's really easy to get a name collission if compiling
Jansson as a subproject in a larger CMake project. If one project includes
several subprojects each having their own config.h, this will cause the
wrong file to be loaded.
The decimal point '.' is changed to locale's decimal point
before/after JSON conversion to make C standard library's
locale-specific string conversion functions work correctly.
All the tests now call setlocale(LC_ALL, "") on startup to use the
locale set in the environment.
Fixes GH-32.
json_int_t is typedef'd to long long if it's supported, or long
otherwise. There's also some supporting things, like the
JSON_INTEGER_FORMAT macro that expands to the printf() conversion
specifier that corresponds to json_int_t's actual type.
This is a backwards incompatible change.
