    Json files is handled as an uneditble attachments in the current
    version.
    I implemented a new class JSONReviewUI that
    enhence Review board's ability to process JSON file.

    New features include:

    • Rendering JSON in an easy-to-read format.
    • Allowing the user to comment on the prettified file based on
      line numbers.
    • Auto-sorting of output keys.
    • Allow user to compare the changes of files in diffs
    • A thumbnail that render in the easy-to-read format, too.

    Ran unit tests.

    Tested the development environment with:

    • Properly formatted JSON files.
    • JSON files with long lines.
    • Minified JSON files.
    • Highly-nested JSON files.
