-json option on jobs status command

#16566

This modification dumps the entire job struct in JSON format. I don't know if just dumps the entire struct is the better approach, if not, i can expose specific fields.

Hi @geovannyAvelar! I know this is still in draft but just a heads up that the approach you've got here is essentially what the existing nomad job inspect does. The goal described in #16566 is to have the whole command's output in some JSON-structured way, which includes a lot of ancillary information like the allocations, deployments, etc.

Hello @tgross! I made some changes. Now when -json option is included in nomad job status command, we output same data of nomad job status command (evals, allocations, latest deployment and summary). Please let me know if I need to change or include something. Do I need to include something different when handling periodic or parameterized jobs?

This is looking great @geovannyAvelar. To get this merged:

• Run make cl to add a changelog entry
• Add documentation for the new command flag in website/content/docs/commands/job/status.mdx
• Mark the PR as ready-for-review

LGTM!

I've made a minor adjustment to the changelog entry. Once CI is green I'll get this merged for the next 1.7.x release. Thanks @geovannyAvelar!

Bah, sorry @geovannyAvelar, it looks like I led you astray with the structs package, as we have a linter than prevents that import (see #13938, which I approved 🤦 ). I've fixed that up for you.
