ffi-yajl should parse bare objects for ruby-yajl compat

[lamont-granquist]

Python, JS and ruby-yajl allow this kind of parsing (note closely the single-quote-double-quotes):

[2] pry(main)> Yajl::Parser.parse("1")
=> 1
[4] pry(main)> Yajl::Parser.parse('"a"')
=> "a"

👍

Also true, false, and null for completeness.

[lamont-granquist]

do you mean "null" or nil? there's #15 open already

[lamont-granquist]

this is also technically a dup of #1

[lamont-granquist]

and to be clear, here's yajl-ruby's behavior:

[2] pry(main)> Yajl::Parser.parse("null")
=> nil
[3] pry(main)> Yajl::Parser.parse(nil)
Yajl::ParseError: input must be a string or IO
[4] pry(main)> Yajl::Parser.parse("true")
=> true
[5] pry(main)> Yajl::Parser.parse("false")
=> false

I meant the JSON literal null, though I guess it is just kind of just supported by default :)
