 * JSON serializer and parser. This class uses the native JSON parser if it is

 *
 * NOTE: This class uses eval() on some systems, without sanitizing input. It is
 * not safe to use with untrusted data. Javelin does not provide a library
 * suitable for parsing untrusted JSON.
 *
 * Usage is straightforward:
 *
 *    JX.JSON.stringify({"bees":"knees"}); // Returns string: '{"bees":"knees"}'
 *    JX.JSON.parse('{"bees":"knees"}');   // Returns object: {"bees":"knees"}
