Implementation of subscripting for jsonb
Subscripting for jsonb does not support slices, does not have a limit for the
number of subscripts, and an assignment expects a replace value to have jsonb
type. There is also one functional difference between assignment via
subscripting and assignment via jsonb_set(). When an original jsonb container
is NULL, the subscripting replaces it with an empty jsonb and proceeds with
an assignment.
For the sake of code reuse, we rearrange some parts of jsonb functionality
to allow the usage of the same functions for jsonb_set and assign subscripting
operation.
The original idea belongs to Oleg Bartunov.
