json: reject trailing garbage

Yajl 2 has a nice feature that it can be configured whether to
allow multiple JSON objects parsed from a single stream, defaulting
to off.  And yajl 1.0.12 at least provided a way to tell if all
input bytes were parsed, or if trailing bytes remained after a
valid JSON object was parsed.  But we target RHEL 6 yajl 1.0.7,
which has neither of these.  So fake it by always parsing '[...]'
instead, so that trailing garbage either trips up the array parse,
or is easily detected when unwrapping the result.

* src/util/virjson.c (virJSONValueFromString): With older json,
wrap text to avoid trailing garbage.
* tests/jsontest.c (mymain): Add tests for this.
