The olpc-json crate's CanonicalFormatter does not escape certain
control characters, including new lines. This means that when a COB
gets serialized that includes new lines, those new lines are
serialized verbatim. Upon deserialization `serde_json` -- and any
other JSON deserializer -- will fail due to the encounter of these
control characters.
This behaviour was prevented in radicle-link with the definition of
its own CanoncialFormatter that encodes the control characters
correctly.
Inline this definition of the formatter, under MIT license, to ensure
the correct and remove oplc-cjson.
The behaviour is checked using a multiline test in the issue COB.
