/**
 * A builder for constructing a JSON Patch as defined by
 * RFC 6902 by adding
 * JSON Patch operations incrementally.
 * 
 * The following illustrates the approach.
 * 
 *   JsonPatchBuilder builder = Json.createPatchBuilder();
 *   JsonPatch patch = builder.add("/John/phones/office", "1234-567")
 *                            .remove("/Amy/age")
 *                            .build();
 * 
 * The result is equivalent to the following JSON Patch.
 *  * [
 *    {"op" = "add", "path" = "/John/phones/office", "value" = "1234-567"},
 *    {"op" = "remove", "path" = "/Amy/age"}
 * ] 
 *
 * @see RFC 6902
 *
 * @since 1.1
