/**
 * JSON Patch {@code move} operation
 *
 * For this operation, {@code from} points to the value to move, and {@code
 * path} points to the new location of the moved value.
 *
 * As for {@code add}:
 *
 * 
 *     the value at the destination path is either created or replaced;
 *     it is created only if the immediate parent exists;
 *     {@code -} appends at the end of an array.
 * 
 *
 * It is an error condition if {@code from} does not point to a JSON value.
 * 
 *
 * The specification adds another rule that the {@code from} path must not be
 * an immediate parent of {@code path}. Unfortunately, that doesn't really work.
 * Consider this patch:
 *
 *  *     { "op": "move", "from": "/0", "path": "/0/x" }
 * 
 *
 * Even though {@code /0} is an immediate parent of {@code /0/x}, when this
 * patch is applied to:
 *
 *  *     [ "victim", {} ]
 * 
 *
 * it actually succeeds and results in the patched value:
 *
 *  *     [ { "x": "victim" } ]
 *
