/**
 * A very simple json parser. The only reason we need to read json in the driver is because for
 * historical reason Cassandra encodes a few properties using json in the schema and we need to
 * decode them.
 *
 * We however don't need a full-blown JSON library because: 1) we know we only need to decode
 * string lists and string maps 2) we can basically assume the input is valid, we don't particularly
 * have to bother about decoding exactly JSON as long as we at least decode what we need. 3) we
 * don't really care much about performance, none of this is done in performance sensitive parts.
 *
 * So instead of pulling a new dependency, we roll out our own very dumb parser. We should
 * obviously not expose this publicly.
