Godot Improved JSON

JSON support for all variant types, including native & custom objects with property injection from JSON. - Provides a JSONSerialization autoloaded/globally accessible class with several functions for converting any type to/from JSON.- All Variant.Types are supported; no longer will your StringName be deserialized as a String, or your int as a float. Types are deserialized as the exact type they were when serialized.- Custom & Native object support (including resources, nodes, anything that extends Object).- Configurations for each class define what is to be serialized, only including the properties that you define thus compacting JSON making for smaller files, quicker load & save times.- Assign an id to each class's config, and a json_key to each property. This allows you to change class names, script paths, & property names without having to modify JSON referencing old class names or paths. Simply update the JSON config for the class that changed.- Automatically instantiate a PackedScene from JSON for Node derived classes; keep your default values default!- Editor tools for quickly creating JSON object configurations- Ability to store "references" to local *.tres Resource files within JSON, and upon deserialization load the exact instance of that resource file.- WeakRef support
