Accept JSONC by stripping it of it's comments

[VladCuciureanu]

Implements #145 ... Kind of.

This implementation strips JSONC, therefore converting it to plain JSON.
It does that by using Microsoft's 'jsonc-parser' package.

Inputting any JSONC data will result in the comments getting stripped and the user being greeted by a warning toast notification.

Thanks for tackling this! Why not approach this in the parser logic by replacing calls to JSON.parse with the jsonc-parser parse method, but just ignore adding comments to the visualization for now? Is the interface incompatible?

The interface is indeed compatible. I actually replaced JSON.parse calls to jsonc-parser's parser but I didn't want to add any unneeded complexity that might be brought by a more complex parser. Do you prefer I switch over to using the parser instead?
