This PR adds basic support for applications that do not use c-strings but length delimited strings.
Here you need to create a temporary c-string copy to transfer the string to cjson.

To avoid this superfluous temporary copy, this PR adds two new public functions (with new tests):

  • cJSON_CreateRawWithLength: create a cJSON_Raw from a length delimited input string
  • cJSON_CreateStringWithLength: create a cJSON_String from a length delimited input string

JSON_AddXToObject functions have intentionally not been added. Nullbytes are still interpreted as null-termination, which is limitation as long as cjson uses c-strings internally.

 - cJSON_CreateRawWithLength: create a cJSON_Raw from a length limited input string
 - cJSON_CreateStringWithLength: create a cJSON_String from a length limited input string
