(import spork/json)
(def input `` {"name": "person", "unknown": null, "happy": true, "sad": false} ``)

When calling, the json dictionary becomes a mutable table in janet.

(json/decode input)
@{"happy" true "name" "person" "sad" false "unknown" :null}

pass `true` as the first arg, and json keys become janet keywords.

(json/decode input true)
@{:happy true :name "person" :sad false :unknown :null}

pass `true` as the second arg, and json keys that map to `null` are not hydrated.

(json/decode input true true)
@{:happy true :name "person" :sad false}
