Format Failure Message JSON
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This commit modifies the RSpec Matcher to use
[`JSON.pretty_generate`][docs] to improve the formatting of JSON bodies
and schemata that appear in failure messages.

Additionally, the `json-schema` provided error messages have been moved
to the top of the failure messages, so that the reasons for failure
appear above (potentially lengthy) JSON bodies.
