Erica FischerandCursor bd90f0b4fe Move parser-only expect state out of json_object ...

`expect` was only meaningful while the parser was building a container,
and only ever read or written from jsonpull.cpp itself; once parsing
finished it was dead weight on every JSON_ARRAY and JSON_HASH (and
present-but-unused on every primitive too). Move it into the parser's
container stack, alongside the shared_ptr to the container it pertains
to:

    struct json_pull::parse_frame {
        json_object_ptr container;
        json_type       expect;
    };
    std::vector<parse_frame> container_stack;

The base class now only carries data-model state (parent, parser, type).
No external caller depended on `expect`, so no sweep was needed outside
jsonpull.cpp.

This change does not, in itself, shrink any json_object: the 4-byte
`expect` field used to live at offset 20 inside the base, where it was
already being eaten by alignment padding for the 8-byte-aligned first
member of every subclass (std::string, std::vector, double). The win is
in the data model, not the byte count -- the 4-byte hole is still
there, but it is now available for a future subclass whose first member
is small enough to slot into it.
