feat(value): add ergonomic type checking and accessor methods to JsonValue

[Aditya-9-6]

Motivation

Currently, working with JsonValue in pure Rust code requires matching on JsonValue variants for every access. Adding standard accessor and type checking methods (similar to serde_json::Value) improves developer ergonomics significantly when querying or inspecting parsed JSON data.

Solution

Added the following accessor methods to JsonValue<'j>:

• Type queries: is_null(), is_boolean(), is_number(), is_int(), is_float(), is_string(), is_array(), is_object()
• Value accessors: as_bool(), as_i64(), as_f64(), as_str(), as_array(), as_object()
• Object lookup: get(key: &str) -> Option<&JsonValue<'j>>

let val = JsonValue::parse(json_bytes, true)?;
if let Some(name) = val.get("name").and_then(|v| v.as_str()) {
    println!("Name: {name}");
}
