Previously when parsing a JSON representation of a Flatbuffer, the
parser required that the input string contain one and only one root
table. This change adds a flag that removes that requirement, so that
if a Flatbuffer table is embedded in some larger string the parser will
simply stop parsing once it reaches the end of the root table, and does
not validate that it has reached the end of the string.
This change also adds a BytesConsumed function, which returns the number
of bytes the parser consumed. This is useful if the table embedded in
some larger string that is being parsed, and that outer parser needs to
know how many bytes the table was so that it can step over it.
In some debug environments using vector[i] does bounds checking even
though the standard specifies that it should not. Using
*(vector.begin()) sidesteps this though, giving the same result without
the bounds checking.
