 * @Xr Json
 *
 * This API is an extension of
 * .Xr json 3
 * that is specifically designed to produce the Matrix specification's
 * "canonical" JSON.
 * .Pp
 * Canonical JSON is defined as JSON that:
 * .Bl -bullet -offset indent
 * .It
 * Does not have any unecessary whitespace.
 * .It
 * Has all object key lexicographically sorted.
 * .It
 * Does not contain any floating point numerical values.
 * .El
 * .Pp
 * The regular JSON encoder has no such rules, because normally they
 * are not needed. However, Canonical JSON is needed in some cases to
 * consistently sign JSON objects.

/**
 * Encode a JSON object following the rules of Canonical JSON. See the
 * documentation for
 * .Fn JsonEncode ,
 * documented in
 * .Xr Json 3
 * for more details on how JSON encoding operates. This function exists
 * as an alternative to
 * .Fn JsonEncode ,
 * but should not be preferred to it in most circumstances. It is a lot
 * more costly, as it must lexicographically sort all keys and strip
 * out float values. If at all possible, use
 * .Fn JsonEncode ,
 * because it is much cheaper both in terms of memory and CPU time.
 * .Pp
 * This function returns a boolean value indicating whether or not the
 * operation was sucessful. This function will fail only if NULL was
 * given for any parameter. Otherwise, if an invalid pointer is given,
 * undefined behavior results.

 * be signed in a consisten way. Thus, it is likely you need a string
 * to pass to the signing function.

 * This function returns a C string containing the canonical JSON
