**Better syntax error reporting**

## Implementing a new parser

The new parser, parses the json as a tree, making it easier to travel over the path specified by the user and prevent key conflicts.

## Testing

**We have some examples to you:**

basic one:

```bash
$ make basic
$ ./basic
```

testing the new parser:

```bash
$ make st
$ ./st
```

nested_objects one:

```bash
$ make nested_objects
$ ./nested_objects
```

nested_arrays one:

```bash
$ make nested_arrays
$ ./nested_arrays
```

nested_stuff one:

```bash
$ make nested_stuff
$ ./nested_stuff
```

## Next improvements

- Better error reporting at parser level
- Fix the formatter scaping strings
- Generate a libray from Cson

## Next steps

- Create a first unstable release
