 * CanonicalJson.h: An expansion of the JSON encoding functionality
 * that is specifically designed to produce the Matrix spec's
 * "canonical" JSON.
 *
 * Canonical JSON is defined as JSON that:
 *
 *   - Does not have any unecessary whitespace.
 *   - Has all object keys lexicographically sorted.
 *   - Does not contain any float values.
 *
 * The regular JSON encoder has no such rules, because normally they
 * are not needed. However, Canonical JSON is needed to be able to
 * sign JSON objects in a consistent way.

/*
 * Encode a JSON object following the rules of canonical JSON. See
 * JsonEncode() for more details on how JSON encoding operates.
 *
 * This function exists as an alternative to JsonEncode(), but should
 * not be preferred to JsonEncode() in normal circumstances. It is
 * a lot more costly, as it must lexicographically sort all keys and
 * strip out float values. If at all possible, use JsonEncode(),
 * because it is much cheaper in terms of memory and CPU time.
 *
 * Params:
 *
 *   (HashMap *) The JSON object to encode. Note that all values must
 *               be JsonValues.
 *   (FILE *)    The output stream to write the JSON object to.
 *
 * Return: Whether or not the JSON encoding was successful. This
 * function may fail if NULL was given for any parameter.

 * reason canonical JSON exists is so that JSON objects can be signed.
 * Thus, you need a string to pass to the signing function.
 *
 * Params:
