JSON Wire Protocol

This is the initial subset of the Selenium WebDriver wire protocol that is currently supported in RainbowDriver. This provides the minimal set of navigation and element interactions to perform an automation test. Future versions will support more of the wire protocol.

Thanks to @hugs for letting me steal this from Appium :)
