Subject: [PATCH] unbundle/jsoncpp: avoid CFI faults with is_cfi=true
Ensure jsoncpp symbols have public visibility and are thus excluded from
CFI checks and whole-program optimization. This is achieved by defining
JSON_DLL_BUILD which in turn causes json/config.h to define JSON_API as
__attribute__((visibility("default"))). The latter macro is used to tag
jsoncpp classes and namespace functions throughout jsoncpp's headers.
