FS#586 - Add JSON output

This might not be feasible in a general sense due to the need to interact with CUPS.  But it's worth investigating.

There's a desire for a more uniform status/etc reporting structure in an easily machine-readable format. A common denominator might be: * Timestamp (%F %H:%M:%S) * Printer Info * Manufacturer * Model * Serial Number * FW Version * Media * Human readable type (eg "5x7 HQ") * Capacity * Remaining prints * Counters * Lifetime * ??? (anything else make sense?) * Status (eg printing, idle, error XXX) So: 1) Define data structure to hold all of this, and define function signature to query it 2) Update backends to add method to query this info 3) Add function to emit this info as JSON and human readable text? 4) ???

I have an early version of this implemented, with two backends (dnp, hiti). No JSON yet, but that's next. WIP!

JSON output implemented. Once I figure out how to integrate it cleanly I'll commit and push.
