/// Creates a static json object that can be serialized very fast.
/// Returns a struct implementing [`JSONValue`](trait.JSONValue.html).
///
/// The macro takes a comma-separated list of key-value pairs.
/// Keys can be written literally, or surrounded by brackets (`[key]`)
/// to reference external variables. A value can be omitted, in which
/// case the the key name must be the name of a variable currently in scope,
/// from which the value will be taken.
///
/// Values must be expressions of a type implementing JSONValue.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ### Create a simple json object.
/// ```
/// use json_in_type::*;
///
/// let my_obj = json_object!{
///     hello: "world"
/// };
///
/// assert_eq!(r#"{"hello":"world"}"#, my_obj.to_json_string());
/// ```
///
/// ### Shorthand property names
/// It is common to create a json object from a set of variables,
/// using the variable names as keys and the contents of the variables as values.
/// ```
/// use json_in_type::*;
///
/// let x = "hello";
/// let y = 42;
/// let z = true;
/// let my_obj = json_object!{ x, y, z };
///
/// assert_eq!(r#"{"x":"hello","y":42,"z":true}"#, my_obj.to_json_string());

/// ### Reference external variables
/// ```
/// use json_in_type::*;
///
/// let x = "hello";
/// let my_obj = json_object!{
///     [x]: "world", // The trailing comma is ok
/// };

///     [[x, "_suffix"].concat()]: 42
