Feels less cluttered, easier to read and more consistent.
Still keep tovalue, tobytes etc that are more basic functions this
only renamed format related functions.
Also there is an exceptin for to/fromjson as it comes from jq.
Also fixes lots of spelling errors while reading thru.
Preparation to make decoder use less memory and API more type safe.
Now each scalar type has it's own struct type so it can store different
things and enables to have a scalar interface.
Also own types will enable experimenting with decode DLS designs like
using chained methods that are type aware.
Refactor mp4 decoder to be simpler and have fallback for unknown box type
Cleanup some old ilst hacks
Add generic string reader to decode API that takes an encoding parameters
Fix issue with JQValue:s in assig/update paths.

5253817 fix path value validation on getpath function (fix#198)
I think this is more intuitive but might in some case cause very large JSON output
but maybe that less common or expected. In does cases i think you either want to
use some other bits_format (md5, truncate, etc) or you delete/transform the jq value
before turn it into JSON.
Strings in gojq are binary safe so you can use to hold raw bytes. But note that
convert the binary into JSON is lossy, same as the JSON standard.
Add bits_format option documentation.
raw format was a hack to skip decoding to be able to get a binary using tobyte etc.
Now you can do fq -d bytes ... instead of fq -d raw 'tobytes | ...'
Make more sense to use a more general name when there is both info and xing
and possibly vbri in the future. Also both xing and info seems to have extension
fields
Remove some old tests that are not really needed anymore.
Rework time helpers to use new functions
Fix panic in tar decoder where sym value might be missing
Still not very happy about the API but it's getting better.
Rewrite cli query to use display as output query, same as for repl.
Without this "tovalue" values that don't print in the current eval
will end up in the paren eval and be written using an output without
a cancel context.
Before if you did toactual it behaved differently and even gave error for
a scalar that only had actual value set. Now both to{actal,sym} works
similar to tovalue but will force if actual or sym value should be used.
Markdown is used as is in online documentation and in cli the markdown decoder
is used to decode and the some jq code massages it into something cli friendly.
Was just too much of a mess to have doc in jq.
Will make it faster for struct with logs of fields and seems to
not cuase any significant difference for small structs.
All this really needs a rewrite somehow, maybe refactor into interfaces somehow? getting messy.
This removes bar column drawing responsility from already complicated dump code.
Start of dump code refactor that will enable configurable columns and proper column truncate/wrap.
