The -Bsymbolic-functions linker flag reduces the amount of PLT jumps in
a shared object, and has a side effect of preventing symbol collisions
in libraries and applications linking against two different shared
objects exposing the same symbol.
While the former is (generally) a performance win, the latter is less
rare than expected. For instance, PulseAudio started linking against
json-c a while ago; now, every project linking against PulseAudio is
leaking json-c symbols. In the GNOME platform, this means that projects
linking against PulseAudio cannot be safely linked against other
libraries depending on the GLib-based JSON parsing libraries JSON-GLib,
because of a symbol conflict. Nominally, this conflict would not be an
issue: libraries and applications do not need to depend on two different
JSON parsing libraries; the symbol leakage, though, ends up causing
either segmentation faults, or weird errors. For further reference,
please see: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703734
JSON-GLib already switched to using -Bsymbolic-functions, but it would
be safe if json-c did the same, wherever the linker flag is available.
Changing root name of library to json-c, and also the
directory where header files are installed to .../jsdon-c/*.
This avoids clashes with other implementations of JSON libraries.
As part of this create a public json_config.h with a custom define to
decide whether to include inttypes.h to avoid conflicting with other
projects config.h header.
Added parse_null test. This does not change anything with how the parser handles \u0000 or null characters
