[PATCH] add JSON output format

[Harald Welte <laforge@gnumonks.org>]

the original output format looks a bit like JSON, but isn't.  The XML
output is useful if you deal with XML, but a lot of applications prefer
more lightweight formats like YAML/JSON.

This adds the JSON output format to libnetfilter_acct, which will
subsequently be used by a similar change in the nfacct utility.
