For fromjson and other "value" decode values fq make then behave both like
a normal jq value and decode value. This is to make tobytes, format etc work.
Before all _* would be treated as special keys. Now they are first looked up in
the wrapped value and then as decode values.
Also now ._key that don't exist reutrn null instead of throw error.
$ fq -n '`{"_format": 123}` | fromjson | ._format'
Now:
123
Before:
"json"
$ fq -n '`{}` | fromjson | ._missing'
Now:
null
Before
error
