[PATCH v5 07/12] lib: introduce json_path_normalize routine

[Kirill Shcherbatov]

Introduced a new routine json_path_normalize that makes a
conversion of JSON path to the 'canonical' form:
  - all maps keys are specified with operator ["key"] form
  - all array indexes are specified with operator [i] form.
This notation is preferable because in the general case it can
be uniquely parsed.
We need such API in JSON indexes patch to store all paths in
'canonical' form to commit the path uniqueness checks and
to tune access with JSON path hashtable.

Need for #1012
