7fcbe723fc Added a "strict JSON" mode to the text generator and compiler
This will add quotes around field names, as required by the official
standard. By default it will leave quotes out, as it is more readable,
more compact, and is accepted by almost all JSON parsers.
The -S switch to flatc turns on strict mode.

As per rfc 7159.

9140144d51 Added functionality to assign field ids manually in a schema
New attribute:

-   `id: n` (on a table field): manually set the field identifier to `n`.
    If you use this attribute, you must use it on ALL fields of this table,
    and the numbers must be a contiguous range from 0 onwards.
    Additionally, since a union type effectively adds two fields, its
    id must be that of the second field (the first field is the type
    field and not explicitly declared in the schema).
    For example, if the last field before the union field had id 6,
    the union field should have id 8, and the unions type field will
    implicitly be 7.
    IDs allow the fields to be placed in any order in the schema.
    When a new field is added to the schema is must use the next available ID.

a5f50019bc Made declaring the underlying type of an enum mandatory.
This is a breaking change, anyone having schema files with enums
that do not specify a type will get a specialized error:

must specify the underlying integer type for this
enum (e.g. ': short', which was the default).

All of the samples and docs already had a type specified,
so hopefully this will affect very few people.
