Simple JSON Implementation

The reason I made this (except for the fun of it) is that I found a couple of people had issues with incorporating QJson in their projects (be it what it may). I reserve no copyrights to this implementation so you are all welcome to ctrl+c ctrl+v and do as you see fit with it.
