Add @dig modifier for recursive descent searches
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This commit adds the "@dig" modifier, which allows for searching
for values in deep or arbitrarily nested json documents

For example, using the following json:

```
{ "something": {
    "anything": {
      "abcdefg": {
          "finally": {
            "important": {
                "secret": "password"
            }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
```

```
@dig:secret  ->  ["password"]
```

See #130
