Rather than relying on libbson to supply a convenient wrapper to
creating JSON fragments, instead use a dedicated/embeddable C API to
achieve the same result.

Although libbson might be fast, there simply isn't enough JSON being
used as an IPC mechanism for the overhead of using libbson. By
overhead, this is referring to the fact that not every linux
distribution or BSD have packaged bson, or have a new enough version of it.

Fixes #408

As with the 'Status' command in fvwm, replace the BSON implementation
with cJSON.

Fixes #408
libbson has been replaced with a dedicated JSON C API (cJSON), so
there's no longer a requirement to check for libbson any longer.

Fixes #408
