Add option force_array for COPY JSON FORMAT
This adds the force_array option, which is available exclusively
when using COPY TO with the JSON format.
When enabled, this option wraps the output in a top-level JSON array
(enclosed in square brackets with comma-separated elements), making the
entire result a valid single JSON value. Without this option, the
default behavior is to output a stream of independent JSON objects.
Attempting to use this option with COPY FROM or with formats other than
JSON will raise an error.
