VisitJsonProcessor permits visiting a JSON and applying different transformers on the way.
For now VisitJsonProcessor requires you specify an OutputStream. If you only need to consume parts of the JSON using this processor, specify a OutputStream.nullOutputStream()
<T> JsonElementTransformer replace(PathMatcher pathMatcher, T replacer)
Used to replace an entire JSON element at the given path.
Note: This will replace the value while the field will stay the same
<T> JsonElementTransformer peek(PathMatcher pathMatcher, Class<T> clazz, Consumer<JsonObjectElement<T>> consumer)
Used to read an object at the given location. The object will be written to the OutputStream as is.

<T> JsonElementTransformer peekAll(PathMatcher pathMatcher, Class<T> clazz, Consumer<JsonArrayElement<T>> consumer)
Used to read a list at the given location. The entire list will be written to the OutputStream
