The old code was caching per-type struct field info. Instead,
cache type-specific encoding funcs, tailored for that
particular type to avoid unnecessary reflection at runtime.
Once the machine is built once, future encodings of that type
just run the func.
benchmark old ns/op new ns/op delta
BenchmarkCodeEncoder 48424939 36975320 -23.64%
benchmark old MB/s new MB/s speedup
BenchmarkCodeEncoder 40.07 52.48 1.31x
Additionally, the numbers seem stable now at ~52 MB/s, whereas
the numbers for the old code were all over the place: 11 MB/s,
40 MB/s, 13 MB/s, 39 MB/s, etc. In the benchmark above I compared
against the best I saw the old code do.

I want to think more carefully about this.
We put this in because Marshal encoded named []byte but Unmarshal rejected them.
And we noticed that Marshal's behavior was undocumented so we documented it.
But I am starting to think the docs and Unmarshal were correct and Marshal's
behavior was the problem.
Rolling back to give us more time to think.

json: unmarshal types that are byte slices.
The json package cheerfully would marshal
type S struct {
IP net.IP
}
but would give an error when unmarshalling. This change allows any
type whose concrete type is a byte slice to be unmarshalled from a
string.
Fixes#5086.

In practice, rejecting an entire structure due to a single invalid byte
in a string is just too picky, and too hard to track down.
Be consistent with the bulk of the standard library by converting
invalid UTF-8 into UTF-8 with replacement runes.

The old code was incorrect and also broken. It passed the tests by accident.
The new algorithm is:
1) Sort the fields in order of names.
2) For all fields with the same name, sort in increasing depth.
3) Choose the single field with shortest depth.
If any of the fields of a given name has a tag, do the above using
tagged fields of that name only.

If a fixed size array is passed in as the decode target and the JSON
to decode has extra array elements that are objects, then previously
the decoder would return a "data changing underfoot" error.

The second attempt at the Unmarshal optimization allowed
panics to get out of the json package. Add test for that bug
and remove the optimization.
Let's stop trying to optimize Unmarshal.

The JSON unmarshaller failed to allocate an array when there
are no values for the input causing the `[]` unmarshalled
to []interface{} to generate []interface{}(nil) rather than
[]interface{}{}. This wasn't caught in the tests because Decode()
works correctly and because jsonBig never generated zero-sized
arrays. The modification to scanner_test.go quickly triggers
the error:
without the change to decoder.go, but with the change to scanner_test.go:
$ go test
--- FAIL: TestUnmarshalMarshal (0.10 seconds)
decode_test.go:446: Marshal jsonBig
scanner_test.go:206: diverge at 70: «03c1OL6$":null},{"[=» vs «03c1OL6$":[]},{"[=^\»
FAIL
exit status 1
FAIL encoding/json 0.266s
Also added a simple regression to decode_test.go.

Go 1.0 behavior was to create an UnmarshalFieldError when a json value name matched an unexported field name. This error will no longer be created and the field will be skipped instead.

bytes.Equal is simpler to read and should also be faster because
of short-circuiting and assembly implementations.
Change generated automatically using:
gofmt -r 'bytes.Compare(a, b) == 0 -> bytes.Equal(a, b)'
gofmt -r 'bytes.Compare(a, b) != 0 -> !bytes.Equal(a, b)'

I've elected to omit escaping the output of Marshalers for now.
I haven't thought through the implications of that;
I suspect that double escaping might be the undoing of that idea.

We should, after Go 1, make them work the same as
package xml, that is, make them appear in the outer
struct. For now turn them off so that people do not
depend on the old behavior.
