 * ------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * DESIGN GOALS:
 *
 * 1. Zero heap allocations while seeking the requested key.
 * 2. A single parse (and therefore a single allocation, if needed)
 *    when the key finally matches.
 * 3. Same subset‑of‑JSON coverage needed by expr.c:
 * - Strings (escapes: \" \\ \n \r \t).
 * - Numbers (double).
 * - Booleans.
 * - Null.
 * - Flat arrays of the above primitives.
 *
 * Any other value (nested object, unicode escape, etc.) returns NULL.
 * Should be very easy to extend it in case in the future we want
 * more for the FILTER option of VSIM.
 * 4. No global state, so this file can be #included directly in expr.c.
 *
 * The only API expr.c uses directly is:
 *
 * exprtoken *jsonExtractField(const char *json, size_t json_len,
 * const char *field, size_t field_len);
