Issue #505
CASA requested the creation of the ImageConcat and ImageExpr output file in a named directory instead of a named file to be able to move them more easily.
For that purpose it is also more convenient to have the output in text format instead of AipsIO format, so it can be edited if needed. It was chosen to output it in Json format. Code has been created to easily read and write Json files.
This PR is the same is basically the same as #506 with the addition of the .h files to CMakeLists.txt.
It is known to break the CASA build, which has to be changed asap. Also the CASA pipeline feature of moving an ImageConcat file to a directory has to be removed, because ImageConcat now creates (or uses) a directory as agreed with Kumar Golap.
