Support JSONP responses

[bhollis]

JSONView can already parse JSONP responses, it just needs to handle JavaScript MIME types.

Express.js's jsonp() method formats responses in the following way (or see a live example):

callbackName && callbackName({
  // ...
});

Would be nice to have this format recognized as JSONP by JSONView.

Makes sense. The regex should be easy to modify, want to send a PR?

These days I can't say I have any use for JSONP in general - CORS is a much better solution. I'm also not interested in chasing down every variant on a "JSONP" response that a different web server might produce. Furthermore, I can't really see JSONView ever being the viewer responsible for text/javascript or application/javascript content. I'm going to close this feature request and likely remove what JSONP support exists in JSONView for the next release.
