Two shapes work and the second is much smaller, so I'd rather you pick
before I post.

1. Filter in json-pretty.sh and regenerate the dumps. 433 files, 260K.

2. Same filter, plus run the stored dump through json_pretty in
   test-wrapper.sh before the diff. 2 files, 8 lines, no regeneration.
   The 430 dumps keep a metainfo object nothing reads until they are next
   regenerated.

Both survive a json_schema_version bump. I checked by setting a stored
dump to schema 2: passes either way, fails without the change. Suite is
green as root on both, and either way there is a new
tests/shell/testcases/json/metainfo asserting nft still emits it.

Which do you prefer?
